Title: Retrospective Review of the Drop in Observer Detection Performance Over Time in Lesion-enriched Experimental Studies
Dr. Sian Taylor-Phillips’ research focus is health screening and diagnosis, in particular breast cancer screening. Taylor-Phillips applies a range of quantitative research methods primarily to questions about test performance and selection, quality assurance and improvement. Taylor-Phillips leads the Heath Screening masters module, which is a collaboration with the U.K. National Screening Committee. Taylor-Phillips is currently undertaking an NIHR postdoctoral fellowship leading a multicenter randomized controlled trial of a software intervention designed to improve cancer detection performance in breast cancer screening. This work builds on research investigating fatigue and patterns of performance in breast cancer screening, which was part of a Wellcome Trust Value in People Fellowship. Prior to this, Taylor Phillips undertook research about decision-making in the NHS, in particular which services to fund. Taylor-Phillips’ first degree and masters was in physics at the University of Warwick. After some time working in industry, Taylor-Phillips undertook a masters in ergonomics at Loughborough University, researching the ergonomic issues associated with guide dogs and travel on the London Underground.
