Samantha Groves
BSc(Hons) MSc
DPhil Student
I am a DPhil student in the Department of Psychiatry in the Centre for Suicide Research, supervised by Professor Keith Hawton, Dr Karen Lascelles, and Dr Anne Stewart.
I am currently undertaking a mixed-method project to improve our understanding of suicidal thoughts and self-harm among student and qualified nurses.
I have a MSc in Clinical and Health Psychology, and a BSc(Hons) in Psychology. Prior to starting the DPhil I worked as a research assistant at Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust on projects related to suicide among nurses, alongside the impact of working with self-harm among inpatient mental health staff. Before this, I worked on projects at The University of Manchester related to cancer prevention.
My DPhil research is funded by the Oxford-Hoffmann Scholarship in Medical Sciences.
