Senior Registrar Central Middlesex 1985-1988 Appointed Consultant Physician University Hospital Nottingham

!998 Reader and Honorary Consultant Physician University of Nottingham

2000 onwards Professor of Gastroenterology

2010 -2014 Lead Director of the Nottingham Digestive Diseases Centre Biomedical Research Unit

2010 Elected Senior NIHR Investigator

Editor of Gut an international journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology from 2003 -2009.

Expertise Summary

My main interest is in the pathophysiology of functional GI diseases, particularly focusing on the role of infection and inflammation and alterations in serotonin metabolism in the irritable bowel syndrome. I have twice edited the British Society of Gastroenterology ( BSG )Guidelines for the management of IBS and am a member of the Board of the Rome Foundation, an international group which produced the Rome III criteria for the classification of the functional GI diseases.

I was the founding Chairman of the Neurogastroenterology and Motility Section of the British Society of Gastroenterology (BSG)

I was a member of MRC EME Board 2010-2014 and National Institute for Health Research Senior Investigator. I am the author/co-author of more than 335 scientific reviews and original publications.
