Dr Maddy Thompson, formerly of Newcastle University, joined Keele Geography in July 2020 on a prestigious Leverhulme Early Career Fellowship to work on the Responsibility and Resilience research cluster.

Dr Thompson’s project 'Global therapeutic networks: mapping the new disconnects between place and care’ will involve fieldwork in the UK and the Philippines looking at changing patterns of care work, and how these can be affected by technologies that enable care professionals to provide care from a distance.

Beyond academia, Maddy has experience working in the call centre and care sectors.
