About

Overview

Emily is Diagnostic Radiographer specialising in Medical Ultrasound. She joined City, University of London in 2021 as a Lecturer in Diagnostic Imaging and completed her PhD in 2024. Her research explored parents' experiences of antenatal imaging and their effect on the developing parent-fetal bond. This work was jointly funded by the Society and College of Radiographers Doctoral Fellowship Award (DF017), the SHS Research Sustainability Fund, and the Radiography Research Fund from City, University of London. Her professional and research interests include clinical education and training, advancing imaging technologies, parent-centred care, and strengthening patient, public and practitioner partnerships to improve healthcare experiences for everyone.
