Biography

Finola's biochemistry-based PhD involved investigating the forensic identification of human seminal plasma. She then worked for the Forensic Science Service on cases involving crimes against the person and gave evidence at the Old Bailey. In Nottingham she undertook laboratory-based research in cystic fibrosis and asthma.

As Managing Editor of the Cochrane Skin Group, Finola works closely with Cochrane review author teams to help them produce protocols and reviews. She then assists authors once their work is submitted for the editorial process. The finished protocols and reviews are published in the electronic Cochrane Library which is disseminated internationally.

Finola is the lead author on the Cochrane systematic review 'Interventions for alopecia areata' and co-author on 'Dietary exclusions for established atopic eczema', the updated systematic review 'Drugs for discoid lupus erythematosus' and the protocol 'Dietary supplements for established atopic eczema'.
