Introduction

Graeme Wilson arrived at the University in August 2005 through an ESRC Postdoctoral Fellowship, to develop and disseminate his PhD research on separated fathers' perceptions of their role as non-resident co-parents. This study, which employed Personal Construct Theory and methods, was undertaken at the University of Glasgow's Psychology Department, and was commissioned by the Scottish Executive's Central Research Unit. As part of the former Newcastle Centre for Family Studies he helped evaluate the Youth Inclusion and Support Panels scheme in Cambridgeshire, having previously worked on evaluations of information meetings for separating parents, interventions for young people at risk, and addictions
