Profile

Jamila is Academic Strategic Lead, developing and operationalising the group strategy and overseeing our programme of research. Since joining Bone and Joint Health in 2020 Jamila has enjoyed developing the infrastructure of the group, the opportunity to collaborate with brilliant colleagues locally and further afield and leading on public engagement. She is passionate about building a diverse and inclusive workspace, being part of a team who are committed to driving, meaningful change in public health. No two days are the same!

Jamila is a physiotherapist who specialised in orthopaedics, loved the day to day work but also wanted to influence the bigger picture around patient care. Jamila moved into clinical research after being successfully awarded a Medical Research Council scholarship to complete a research Masters at Imperial. Previously, Jamila worked at Barts Health NHS Trust in orthopaedic research delivery. She developed and then led a successful orthopaedic research team, worked as a senior strategy manager and then managed COVID-19 research at the Nightingale Hospital.

Outside of work Jamila is busy with her two young girls and baking things that are unnecessarily complicated!
