Common aspects of these studies are that they explore the south Asian patient experience in relation to quality of care in order to inform and develop cultural competency of services.
Emma has a background in the biomedical sciences and has worked conducting applied health research for the past 15 years in NHS, for an independent research consultancy and now in an academic setting.
