Elaine Cloutman-Green
Elaine has been a leading advocate for healthcare science for over a decade, getting involved with outreach programs such as Pint of Science and Science for U. She is Consultant Clinical Scientist (Infection Control Doctor) and Joint Trust Lead Healthcare Scientist at Great Ormond Street Hospital and also runs a blog (girlymicrobiologist) to raise awareness of the field. From risk-assessing Komodo dragon imaging to undertaking the annual Reindeer Review to confirm that Santa and his reindeer are safe to attend the hospital, Elaine says infection prevention and control is “sometimes more humorous and unexpected than I’d ever given it credit for.”
