Dr Tomasina Stacey RM, MA, MPH, PhD, FHEA

I am a midwife and perinatal health researcher. After studying and working as a nurse and midwife in London, I moved to Australia where I undertook a Master's degree in Public Health and then to New Zealand and Auckland University, where I became involved in stillbirth research, completing my PhD, which was a population-based observational study exploring modifiable risk factors for late stillbirth, in 2012. I maintain ongoing collaborations with colleagues from Australia and New Zealand.

The perinatal outcome, public health and the provision of quality maternity care continue to be central to my research interest. I believe in the importance of the synergy between education, clinical practice and research, each informing the other in order, ultimately, to improve the quality and experience of maternal care. I have therefore maintained strong links to practice, most recently working as a clinical academic midwife in West Yorkshire.
