About Us

Our Philosophy

 

Our research is now fully supported by the NCT (www.nct.org.uk) and focuses on how, when, why and where people search for health information online. Our aim is to develop a tool which enables people to improve their search techniques and abilities so they can seek and utilize reliable health information online. In doing so we aim to reduce anxiety, stress and worry which are related to repeated and reoccurant searches of health information. 

Research is being conducted by:

 

Dr Julie Prescott

Dr Lynn Mackie

Candice Simms (Research Assistant Intern)
