Dr Laura
Griffith is Research Fellow at Warwick
Medical School with interests in social anthropology, mental health and
ethnicity. Laura's PhD focused on representations of Bangladeshi women in the
maternity services in east London.
Previous work in East London has included collecting
public health data for Sure Start Spitalifields and Weavers project, and
researching the impact of a BBC 'New Arrivals' language learning website. Laura
joined the University of Warwick to work with the National Centre for Research
in Ethnicity and Mental Health investigating the mechanisms and processes that
underlie ethnic variation in experiences of psychiatric treatment.
The Community Research Network is a forum for health researchers, practitioners, community workers and the public to discuss and get support for research projects in an informal environment. Meetings are aimed at creating a network of participants interested in research and action on health related issues in East London. Meetings are funded by SUMEHR and chaired by John Eversley (London Metropolitan University)
Meetings are open to the public, free of charge and all are welcome. If you would like to attend we ask that you register (by emailing [log in to unmask]) so that we have some idea of numbers.
