Biography

Chris is Professor of Applied Sociology at the University of Glasgow and Director of Research for the Division of Sociological and Cultural Studies. He studied Social and Political Sciences at the University of Cambridge, before progressing to do MPhil and PhD degrees in sociology at the same Univeristy. His PhD explored the practices of faith based organisations providing welfare and social support services in the UK during the New Labour years, through a multi-sited ethnography. 

His first research post was within the Univeristy of Cambridge's Institute for Metabolic Science, which focussed on developing and evaluating a peer support service for people living with type 2 diabetes. Following this, Chris moved to Glasgow to work on the Football Fans in Training study, joining the College of Social Science's Institue of Health and Wellbeing group. Sunsequently, Chris worked on a range of public health focussed projects, including EuroFIT, bringing sociological insights to the design and evaluation of interventions.

After working as a Research Associate for five years, Chris was awarded a College of Social Science/IHW fellowship to develop a portfolio of work on long term conditions in low- and middle-income countries and commercial determinants of health. This led to an ongoing long-term collaboration with the Malawi Epidemiology and Intervention Research Unit and to a series of studies of unhealthy commodities industries, their place in sports and the impacts they have on health. 

Chris' current work is foccused on Malawi, where he supporting a Wellcome Trust cohort study of living with long term conditions in the country. He is a co-investigator on a range of studies relating to long-term conditions in Malawi and Tanzanaia and gambling in Malawi, Ghana and the UK, and teaches sociology and global health.

Research interests

Chris' research interests include the sociologies of long-term health conditions, gambling, commercial determinants of health, civil society and religion.

He has a particular focus on using sociological theory and method in interdisciplinary teams to establish the contextual drivers of social problems, working dialogically with communities and experts to co-construct responses to these problems before systematically evaluating the impacts these responses produce.

Chris' research focuses on three territories - the UK, Malawi and Tanzania - but actively considers the transnational forces at work in them.
