Lisa Jones is a Reader in Public Health in the Faculty of Health, Liverpool John Moores University and a member of LJMU's Public Health Institute and Institute for Health Research. She currently holds a cross-Faculty role supporting the development of evidence synthesis skills across researchers in public health, psychology, nursing and other allied health disciplines.
Lisa has almost two decades of research experience, achieved primarily through externally funded projects utilising systematic review and other methods of evidence synthesis. She is a research leader and has been involved in the production and delivery of more than 30 evidence syntheses on health and public health related topics. Lisa has led the production of evidence synthesis projects to support the development of guidance and guidelines by national and international bodies; including the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), the UK Chief Medical Officers and the World Health Organization. In recent years, she has been a work-package lead on two NIHR-funded evidence synthesis projects (RECO study NIHR128128 and AMOUNT study NIHR202988). She is an active member of the WHO Collaborating Centre for Violence Prevention and has contributed her expertise to the development of global public evidence goods for WHO include topic overviews of evidence and systems providing synopses of evidence such as WHO’s Violence Info knowledge platform.
Since January 2024, she has had a major role as a co-applicant in the successful bid by Liverpool City Council for a Health Determinants Research Collaboration (HDRC) (NIHR159187). Within the HDRC Liverpool, she is contributing academic input to units providing research capacity and culture building within local government and decision support for evidence informed decision making.
Lisa is engaged in a range of external collaborations and partnerships and she currently chairs the Evidence Synthesis Methods sub-group under the MIDAS theme of the Applied Research Collaboration North West Coast (ARC-NWC).
Lisa contributes to a postgraduate module on Research Methods for the MSc Public Health, Public Health (Addictions) and International Public Health; and is module co-leader for an undergraduate module on Making Public Health Happen for the BSc Public Health programme.
