Hannah Family
BSc MSc MBPsS. Chair Elect for the British Psychological Society’s South West Branch
Hannah joined the pharmacy practice group just over four years ago, initially to work as a research assistant, and for the last 2 and a half years has been a full-time PhD student under the supervision of Jane and Marjorie. Hannah is trained to Masters level in Psychology (specialism of Neuropsychology) with previous experience in psychological, epidemiological as well as pharmacy practice research.
The community pharmacist and pharmacy student projects are being carried out as part of Hannah’s doctoral studies and so Hannah is responsible for all the day-to-day management of the two studies including participant recruitment, testing, data management, analysis and report writing. In her spare time Hannah enjoys cooking and baking, running (to work off all the baking) and when she can she enjoys dabbling in a few arts and crafts.
