Research Fellow Jane Hirst awarded title of Associate Professor
Research Fellow Jane Hirst has been awarded the title of Associate Professor at the University of Oxford.
Professor Hirst is a consultant obstetrician and Principal Investigator (PI) who leads a diverse global program of work to improve the lifelong health of mothers and babies, focusing on pregnant women living with diabetes.
She said: ‘I am thrilled to receive this title in recognition of my work to improve pregnancy outcomes for women and babies around the world.’
The overarching aim of Professor Hirst’s research programme is to develop novel solutions to improve pregnancy care delivery, including the integration of non-communicable disease prevention strategies into maternity services and the use of novel digital technologies to strengthen health systems.
She leads the diabetes pregnancy service at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford and in 2017 was appointed a Senior Research Associate at the George Institute for Global Health.

Behind the scaffolding: See inside. See why it matters.
Something remarkable is happening at the Radcliffe Observatory.
Our new film takes you behind the scenes to discover the extraordinary expertise, dedication and craftsmanship involved in conserving one of Oxford`s most significant buildings. With works progressing at pace, the Observatory is entering an exciting new chapter.
The Radcliffe Observatory was created through the generosity of one generation. Its survival depends on the stewardship of another. Its legacy will be inherited by generations yet to come.
Thanks to existing supporters, important progress is already being made. But there is still much to do.
Now, we have an opportunity to play our part in securing the Observatory`s future.
Be part of what comes next.
