Research
She is currently researching the government policy of exclusion of black colonial troops from peace processions at the end of the First World War. She published a book on First World War government policy towards minority and colonial peoples in Britain in 2020. She is also currently working on an article on Scottish women humanitarians who supported Belgian refugees. This research follows on from the award of a 2 year workshops grant to network and hold workshops relating to the treatment of Belgian refugee women suffering from war trauma awarded by the Royal Society of Edinburgh (ended 2018) and a pilot project grant to investigate wartime British responses to Belgian refugees by BA/Leverhulme in 2016. She has edited a book arising from a special edition of the journal 'Immigrants & Minorities' on Belgian refugees in the First World War to which she contributed two chapters in 2018. She also co-authored an article with Dr C Verdier (lecturer in French at Univ. Strathclyde) on women refugees and war trauma for the Women's History Journal in 2019. She is also an active researcher in the social history of medicine and has published a book on the inter-war history of Scotland’s health. She contributed a book chapter on Scottish medical societies and the Scottish Enlightenment in 2020. She also published two articles in UK and US medical history journals (in 2013 and 2015) on the career activities of poor doctors in working class urban Scotland in the late 19th and early 20th centuries following a previous Royal Society of Edinburgh grant award on this topic in 2012.
