Ms Yogini Chokeepermal-Naidu

About

I am the Associate Professor for Adult Nursing and I have previously been an academic at two London Universities. I have a background in adult nursing and biomedical sciences. Since 1998, I have worked in a variety of clinical settings, namely Plastic surgery, acute surgical, general medicine, neurology, paediatrics and clinical research both early and late phases. I have been a specialist research nurse and a nurse researcher for many years with a special interest in clinical, pharmaceutical and pedagogical research. I have been involved in the pioneering research on Non-Motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease in developing the NMS Questionnaire and NMS Scale, now recommended by the NICE guidelines and recognised internationally. During that period, I was selected for 2 awards at the World Federation of Neurologist and the Movement Disorder Society for the Young Scientist Award.  My last clinical job was as the Lead Research Nurse at the Wellcome Trust, UCLH. Now, my focus is to ensure excellence in teaching within adult nursing and leadership and management within nursing education.
