Children and young people's mental health is an urgent and complex clinical issue. I am highly motivated to use rigorous scientific methodologies to address this public health problem. I became interested in this field through lived experience of mental health problems as a teenager and my subsequent undergraduate degree in Experimental Psychology at the University of Oxford. I thrived while studying in an intense academic environment, and in my final year focused on clinical and developmental modules, achieving a First Class degree and receiving the Magdalen College Senior Tutor's Award for Academic Excellence. I have since worked in roles as a Research Assistant and Administrator across two research groups (the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Oxford Psychological Interventions for Children and Adolescents groups) based in the ExperimentalPsychology and Psychiatry departments within the University of Oxford. I have thus gained valuable experience, developing my research interests and confirming my commitment to a clinical-academic career focused on youth mental health research. I have enjoyed being part of busy and dynamic research groups and gained a wide range of skills. These include proficiency in using software, such as RedCAP and R, for data collection and analysis. For example, I have been preparing a codebook for a large longitudinal dataset which is being made open access. I aim to further develop and implement my understanding of the Open Science movement as my career progresses. While working on a clinical trial evaluating an anxiety intervention for young children, I have followed ethical guidelines on data management, storage and confidentiality. I co-authored a research protocol paper which has been submitted to a journal for publication, and am currently preparing two systematic review manuscripts for submission in early 2022. I also co-authored scientific reports on two projects which have been widely disseminated to policy makers, charities and other organisations. I hope to further develop my skills through doctoral study in a world-class research department and would fully exploit opportunities to learn from excellent colleagues and collaborators.

儿童和青少年的心理健康是一个紧迫而复杂的临床问题。我非常积极地使用严格的科学方法来解决这一公共卫生问题。我对这个领域产生了兴趣，是因为我十几岁时对心理健康问题的亲身经历，以及后来在牛津大学获得实验心理学本科学位。我蓬勃发展，而在激烈的学术环境中学习，并在我的最后一年专注于临床和发展模块，实现了一流的学位，并获得了Magdalen学院高级导师的学术卓越奖。此后，我在牛津大学实验心理学和精神病学系的两个研究小组（儿童和青少年精神病学和牛津儿童和青少年心理干预小组）担任研究助理和管理员。因此，我获得了宝贵的经验，发展了我的研究兴趣，并确认了我对专注于青年心理健康研究的临床学术生涯的承诺。我很喜欢成为忙碌和充满活力的研究小组的一员，并获得了广泛的技能。其中包括熟练使用RedCAP和R等软件进行数据收集和分析。例如，我一直在准备一个大型纵向数据集的密码本，该数据集正在开放获取。我的目标是进一步发展和实施我对开放科学运动的理解，因为我的职业生涯的进展。在进行一项评估幼儿焦虑干预的临床试验时，我遵循了有关数据管理、存储和保密的道德准则。我与人合著了一篇研究方案论文，已提交给期刊发表，目前正在准备两篇系统综述手稿，将于2022年初提交。我还与人合著了两个项目的科学报告，这些报告已广泛传播给政策制定者、慈善机构和其他组织。我希望通过在世界一流的研究部门攻读博士学位来进一步发展我的技能，并充分利用机会向优秀的同事和合作者学习。
