BACKGROUND and Education

Background

I am currently co-Specialty Lead in Paediatric Endocrinology at the London Centre for Paediatric Endocrinology and Diabetes (LCPED), My clinical practice encompasses all areas of paediatric and adolescent endocrinology. I qualified in Medicine at the Middlesex Hospital, London. I trained in paediatric endocrinology and was awarded an MD at UCL for my work on the optimization of a novel bioassay for the estimation of serum growth hormone. I then obtained post-doctoral experience at the Medical Research Council National Institute for Medical Research where I identified the first gene to be associated with septo-optic dysplasia. I was made Professor of Paediatric Endocrinology in 2006. I have been Chair of the British Society for Paediatric Endocrinology and Diabetes (2010-2013), and  was Chair of the Programme Organizing Committee of the European Society for Paediatric Endocrinology, with a position on the Council of ESPE (2013-2019), I have been the ESPE President between 2020-2021. My areas of research include hypopituitarism, disorders of growth, and disorders of sex development. I was awarded a prestigious MRC Career Establishment Grant in 1999. I have received several awards for my research subsequently, including the US Endocrine Society Quest Diagnostics Young Investigator Award, RCPCH Donald Paterson Prize and the ESPE Henning Anderson Prize.
