Why this blog?

Lydia-profile-6

I am a researcher at the University of Bristol.

My work is fundamentally inspired by food, and the people working to produce it. In parallel, as I carry out my research, I work and I eat. Am I consuming exactly what I’m researching? – sort of. I could choose many verbs to describe things that I do as part of my research (travel, read, talk, listen) but eating seems like a juicy starting point.

If you need context, my academic page is on the Bristol University website, here.  I also run a project website for my current academic research, Working for five a day, which includes updates on my latest collective efforts with colleagues too.

Thank you for reading,

Lydia
