Andy is a Professor of Epidemiology and head of the Bristol Dental School Lifecourse Epidemiology and Oral Health Research Group. He has interests in early life exposures, nutrition, physical activity, obesity, cardiovascular risk and in cleft lip and palate and head and neck cancer. He is Director of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Biomedical Research Unit at the University of Bristol and the University Hospitals Bristol NHS Foundation Trust in Nutrition, Diet and Lifestyle Biomedical Research Unit and principal investigator on the Head and Neck 5000 cohort study.
