Dr Charitini Stavropoulou Senior Lecturer in Health Management, School of Health Sciences. Dr Charitini Stavropoulou is investigating the impact of recessions on healthcare and mortality rates. Her study of the 2008 financial crisis in Europe, published in the British Medical Journal, showed that the recession was associated with adverse health outcomes, linking it to an increase mainly in mental health problems.

A second study on mortality rates focused on one of the worst-affected countries, Greece. The study, published in The Lancet Public Health, found that mortality trends had been interrupted after the onset of the crisis, resulting in an extra 242 deaths a month. It also revealed some unexpected results, such as a decrease in the number of deaths due to road traffic accidents, likely caused by fewer people being able to afford car running costs.

School of Health Sciences of Health School

Duration Full-time: three years Part-time: six years

The School of Health Sciences provides a supportive and well- resourced environment for individuals wishing to pursue a postgraduate research degree (MPhil/PhD), linked with one of our five Research Centres: Centre for Applied Vision Research; Centre for Health Services Research; Centre for Language and Communication Science Research; Centre for Maternal and Child Health Research; and Centre for Mental Health Research.

There are three routes to an MPhil/ PhD degree within the School:

∙ Traditional MPhil/PhD: students undertake a significant piece of original research and write a thesis based on that research. A majority of students take this route.

∙ MPhil/PhD by Prospective Publication: students base their submission on a series of peer- reviewed research papers which they publish during the course of their MPhil/PhD and incorporate this into an overarching thesis that reflects the work.

∙ MPhil/PhD by Prior Publication: students who have published several significant peer-reviewed research papers spend between one and two years writing an extended treatise which draws this research together with analysis of previously published work by others into the context of a single overarching thesis.
