Biographical Statement

I joined CCSR in 2007 as part of an ESRC 1+3 PhD Studentship titled "The effect of internal migration on the social composition of neighbourhoods". I am currently working on the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing, which is a multi-disciplinary panel study covering the health, economic and social circumstances of a representative sample (funded by the US National Institutes of Health and a consortium of UK Government Departments). More details can be found at: www.ifs.org.uk/elsa.

 

I am also a member of the Population, Ethnicity, Religion and Migration (PERM) research group at CCSR.

 

Research Interests

 

• Internal migration
• Spatial socioeconomic inequalities
