Dr Rhiannon S. Thompson

Rhiannon completed her PhD as a student with SCAMP (2019-2022) and now works as a post-doc funded by the NIHR School for Public Health Research (SPHR). She is passionate about involving young people in health research and uses both quantitative (numbers-based) and qualitative (experience and concept-based) approaches to understand the links between young people’s environments and their mental health. For example, the impacts of air pollution, transport noise, temperature, and climate change on wellbeing. She has a background in psychology and community mental health support.
