01Profile

Personal Statement

I am a postdoctoral Specialty Registrar in Trauma & Orthopaedic Surgery and Clinical Lecturer at the University of St Andrews (Scottish Clinical Research Excellence Development Scheme). I finished top of the national T&O recruitment and was appointed to the competitive South East Scotland Orthopaedics rotation. I’ve built experience at high-volume academic institutions, including the major trauma centre at Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh and national elective orthopaedic centre at the Golden Jubilee University National Hospital. My final two years will focus on knee and hip reconstruction and orthopaedic sports surgery. Uniquely, I am pursuing dual-training to qualify as a Consultant in Sport & Exercise Medicine (SEM).

I hold several academic leadership positions, including: Chair of the Scottish Centres for Orthopaedic Treatment & Innovation in Surgery & Healthcare (SCOTTISH) Research Network; Chair of the Scottish Collaborative Orthopaedic Trainees Research Network (SCOTnet), and supervisor for six active PhD and MD students. I’m a lead investigator on the MARVEL Project – an ambitious suite of research into robot-assisted orthopaedic surgery (including the field’s largest RCT to date). I’ve delivered several large national/international studies that have informed practice and government policy, and have published >55 full scientific articles. I hold editorial appointments as Associate Editor (Sports Injury) at the Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport and Guest Editor (Musculoskeletal Sports Injury) at the Journal of Clinical Medicine, and I sit on the scientific committee of the Fragility Fracture Network Global Congress 2026. I’m a 2024-25 Research Fellow at British Association of Sport & Exercise Medicine (BASEM) and delivered a nationwide multicentre study evaluating the multisystem health and quality of life impact associated with hip and knee osteoarthritis.

I work in multiple high-performance sports medicine environments, including: Team Physician (Heart of Midlothian FC); Match Day Doctor (Scottish Rugby International and Elite Club Teams); Sports Medicine Doctor & Research Fellow (European Tour Performance Institute and DP World Tour Golf), and Committee Member of the Faculty of Sport & Exercise Medicine (Team Care). I’m a 2024-25 BASEM Travelling Fellow and, with support from the UK IOC Medical Research Centre, undertook clinical placements at Aspetar (Doha), Mediclinic Perform (Dubai), Sport Surgery Clinic (Dublin), and elite sport environments including European/DP World Tour (Various, International). I have a PgCert in MSK Ultrasound (with Distinction).

I am a committed medical educator and Member of the Faculty of Surgical Trainers (RCSEd). I completed a one-year full-time Medical Education Fellowship and was module organiser for the University of Edinburgh MBChB Musculoskeletal programme. I led a major curriculum overhaul, worked on national working groups, was awarded a PgCert (with Merit) in Clinical Education, and received local/national awards and nominations. I have authored a textbook (published, Scion Publishing) and a textbook chapter (in press, Elsevier), and I’m associate editor for a third textbook (in press, Elsevier). I was Chief Registrar at national orthopaedic Hospital, I’ve co-hosted several national conference in orthopaedics, sports medicine, and medical education, and have taught doctors at the Ministry of Health in China. I have an undergraduate degree in psychology (first class honours).

My final two years of training in T&O surgery (ST7-8) will focus on achieving the FRCS (Tr & Orth), whilst tailoring my subspecialty interests towards knee and hip preservation and reconstruction before undertaking a post-training fellowship in clinical and academic practise in this field. My future practise will be as a clinical and academic T&O surgeon strongly influenced by consultant-level training and experience in high-performance sports medicine.

Speaking at the BASEM Annual Conference, 2025
Speaking at the BASEM Annual Conference, 2025

I am a postdoctoral Clinical Lecturer on the highly-competitive Scottish Clinical Excellence Development Scheme (SCREDS). I completed my PhD in 2024 on health data science and outcome prediction in orthopaedics during the COVID-19 pandemic. I supervise six active PhD/MD students, have published >50 peer-reviewed publications and led numerous multicentre and multinational studies that have shaped policy and practice. My research integrates trials, registry, data science, and review methods - a multimodal approach that supports innovation across musculoskeletal healthcare and high-performance sport.

I hold national and international academic leadership roles, including Chair of the SCOTTISH Research Network and founder of IMPACT, a global research collaborative established during the COVID-19 pandemic that yielded 16 publications with over 500 co-authors from 20 countries. I’ve contributed to global benchmarking initiatives have a strong record of designing and delivering large-scale multicentre studies.

I have an established programme of research in knee and hip arthroplasty and sport-related knee injuries. I’m Deputy Chief Investigator of the MARVEL Project, the UK’s largest clinical research programme into robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty (VELYS Robot Assisted Solution), and supervise six doctoral candidates whose work includes evaluating and optimising partial and total knee replacement, robotic-assisted surgery, enhanced recovery, sport-related knee injuries, periprosthetic fractures and infection. My research is supported by around £2.5 million in competitive funding, including grants and salaries from UKRI, Johnson & Johnson, BASEM, AO UK&I, Public Health Scotland, and Golden Jubilee University National Hospital. My clinical and translational research extends to interdisciplinary Sports Medicine Event Care and to Performance Medicine, the integrated systems for health and human optimisation that operate in high performance environments, and I lead several multidisciplinary and multifocal projects across both. A related strand examines artificial intelligence and technology enabled interventions for health optimisation, physical activity prescription and injury rehabilitation, together with the development, validation and implementation standards such systems should meet before adoption into healthcare.

As BASEM Research Scholar my nationwide SPORT-EMPOWER and WAIT DATA projects evaluate the multisystem health and economic impact of osteoarthritis, and as Research Fellow at the European Tour Performance Institute (ETPI) I work with an elite multidisciplinary sport science team to investigate performance at the highest level. I apply these principles to a growing programme of research into the field of sports medicine and human performance, and continually seek to push new boundaries at the intersection of medical and scientific fields.

At a specialist tertiary university hospital for children and young people I have led data-informed service improvement, educational and governance projects covering emergency department flow and referral management, the multidisciplinary musculoskeletal infection review meeting, the morbidity and mortality meeting, and the multidisciplinary, multiagency major trauma review meeting.

07Education

Medical Education

I’m a committed medical educator and Membership of the Faculty of Surgical Trainers (RCSEd). I completed a year-long full-time Medical Education Fellowship, leading major curriculum overhaul of the University of Edinburgh’s MBChB Musculoskeletal programme and earning a PgCert in Clinical Education (with Merit). My work received national recognition, including a Highly Commended Innovation in Training Award and an Outstanding Role Model nomination from NHS Education for Scotland.

I’ve authored a published textbook (The Surgical Portfolio and Interview), contributed to The Unofficial Guide to Paediatrics (Elsevier, in press), and I’m Associate Editor of The Unofficial Guide to Orthopaedics (Elsevier, in press). I have published eight articles on medical education covering surgical training, virtual learning, SEM education, and equality and culture. As Chief Registrar at the national orthopaedic hospital, I led postgraduate teaching strategy and now supervise six active PhD/MD candidates. My academic background in psychology (First Class Honours) supports a learner-centred, evidence-based approach across the educational spectrum. I’ve held regional and national roles coordinating postgraduate training in surgery and medicine.

I co-designed the Performance Curriculum for the University of St Andrews Performance Sport Programme – a suite of educational materials for athletes, coaches, and support staff aimed at optimising athletic health and performance. As a Professional Development Advisor I have taught sports medicine practice to FIFA & University of Bath masters students. I examine on the Faculty of Sport & Exercise Medicine’s Diploma in MSK Medicine, and sit on the sub-group overseeing the Diploma in Team Care. I’ve held roles across undergraduate and postgraduate education, including tutor, course organiser, and examiner. I’ve co-organised national conferences in SEM, orthopaedics, and professional culture, and designed national simulation and skills programmes for NHS Lothian and NHS Education for Scotland. I also taught at the Ministry of Health in China. I am currently designing a multidisciplinary, multispecialty postgraduate training placement spanning Spinal Surgery, Interventional Radiology and Rehabilitation Services, and an interdisciplinary professional education programme in Sports Medicine Event Care and Performance Medicine delivering clinical and research skills online and in person.
