Research Manager, Warwick Medical School, University of Warwick, UK

Krysia was the research manager for Warwick and Coventry Primary Care Research between 2000 and 2011. During this time she not only managed the financial and operational aspects of the research network, but became particularly involved in advising research students and primary care researchers on NHS governance and ethical requirements. She was always eager to develop and challenge herself, and over time became actively involved in research as a co-investigator on research related to disfigurement. She co-authored a number of papers and book chapters about this topic, and published a personal piece in the British Medical Journal on her experience of living with facial disfigurement.
