Research

Research Interests:

Professor Green leads the Transfusion Academic Unit at the Blizard Institute, QMUL, which aims to drive clinical research in haemostasis and transfusion medicine. Her research focuses on improving and developing blood components for the treatment of bleeding disorders (e.g. trauma and surgery), bringing together laboratory services and clinical research across NHS Blood and Transplant, Barts Health NHS Trust and QMUL.

She has led several major studies that have advanced transfusion practice and patient management, including the ORANGE study, the PROPHESY-2 and SWiFT trials, and the Health Economic evaluation of bedside electronic transfusion system.
