Dr Carrie Purcell

  • Honorary Research Fellow (School of Health & Wellbeing)

Biography

Carrie Purcell is an Honorary Research Fellow in the School for Health and Wellbeing.

Until 2022, Carrie was a Research Fellow at the MRC/CSO Social and Public Health Sciences Unit, where she led and contributed to a wide range of studies. Carrie was Project Manager of SCOT:REACH-HF (2020-22), a study evaluating implementation in Scotland of the REACH-HF cardiac rehabilitation and self-management programme. 

From 2018-2021, Carrie was PI on the Wellcome Trust-funded Sexuality and Abortion Stigma Study (SASS). In partnership with colleagues at the Open University, Ulster, and Bournemouth Universities, SASS explored the potential for qualitative secondary analysis of a range of abortion-related UK datasets to inform understanding of abortion stigma. Carrie is a collaborator on My Body, My Life, and was co-investigator on the related Abortion During Covid-19 study. 

Prior to that, Carrie worked as an Investigator Scientist at the SPHSU, and as a Research Fellow in the Centre for Population Health Sciences, University of Edinburgh. She holds an MA(SocSci) in Sociology from the University of Glasgow, and an MSc and PhD in Sociology from the University of Edinburgh.
