Our research and teaching interests include life-course research and the use of cohort studies. We explore how biological, behavioural and psychosocial processes operate across an individual's life course or across generations to influence growth and development and disease risk. We aim to influence policy and practice to reduce health inequalities, as well as improving the health and wellbeing of the population overall.
