Hollie is a Research Fellow working as part of the Born and Bred in (BaBi) Network Team (https://www.babinetwork.co.uk). Hollie’s work will focus on using data from the BiB4All cohort to support local decision-making and supporting the development of the BaBi Network. The BiB4All study gains consent from women during their pregnancy to link data that is routinely collected about themselves and their child for research purposes.
Hollie’s PhD was also with Born in Bradford, where she explored how local decision-makers could be best supported to use linked data research and identified local evidence gaps around child and maternal health that could be addressed with data from the BaBi studies. Hollie has an undergraduate degree in Economics and Business Management, with industrial placement, from Newcastle University and an MSc in Health Economics from the University of York. Her research interests include child and maternal health, the use of routine data for research, and reducing inequalities.
