Staff Profile
Dr Jonny Bunn
Clinical Research Associate
I am a registrar in geriatric medicine, training within the North East, currently undertaking a period of research training through my role as a clinical research associate within the AGE research group (AGE Research Group | AGE Research Group | Newcastle University (ncl.ac.uk)).
My primary role is within the ADMISSION collaborative (About Our Research | ADMISSION | Newcastle University (ncl.ac.uk)), focussing upon characterising multiple long-term conditions (MLTC) in hospitalised patients. The aims of this work is to examine the burden and patterns of MLTC in patients admitted to hospital through a series of statistical methods. Alongside this I am undertaking work funded through an award from the BGS Registrar Start-Up Grant scheme on links between muscle health and the gut microbiome.
Outside of the university I have involvement with the Association of Elderly Medical Education, helping to organise the annual Geriatrics for Juniors conference. Through my research interests I have become involved with the GeriData network (Home - GeriData).
