READING, RICHARD

I am a consultant community paediatrician based in Norwich with a clinical interest in child abuse and safeguarding. I am a reader at the Norwich Medical School. My research interests relate to rare disease epidemiology, child maltreatment, epidemiology of emotional and psychiatric disorders, accident prevention and service evaluation. I have been a member of the BPSU since 2006, was a member of the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Surveillance System from 2007 – 2013, and chair of the BPSU Scientific Committee since 2013. I also do work for the Health Technology Assessment Programme.
