Thought LeadersDr. Samantha WalkerDirector of Research & InnovationAsthma UK and the British Lung Foundation
In light of World Asthma Day, News-Medical interviewed Dr. Samantha Walker from Asthma UK and the British Lung Foundation about some of the common misconceptions surrounding asthma.
Please could you introduce yourself and tell us about your expertise in asthma?
My name is Samantha Walker. I am Director of Research & Innovation at Asthma UK and the British Lung Foundation, based in London. I trained as a nurse in the late ‘80s and then worked as a research nurse at the world-leading Allergy & Clinical Immunology Department at the National Heart & Lung Institute (NHLI), based at Imperial College London, assisting in and eventually running research studies testing new asthma and allergy treatments.

Tiptree nurse raises money in Everest challenge


She said: “It was just lovely to get that level of support from people.
“You really felt appreciated then and it feels good to know you have achieved a pretty significant amount of money for a charity which does such important work.
“I’ve worked with respiratory patients, I’ve been on an Asthma UK project in the past, and I’m a member of the BLF professionals to promote the charity.
“When I saw they were doing this walk, I thought I would quite like to do something to give back to the BLF and Asthma UK since they merged last year.

Green Britain: Wood-burning stove 'invisible killer' warning – COMMENT | Express Comment | Comment


But this must-have design feature comes with high environmental and health costs.
Particle pollution from burning both wood and coal is emitted right in the middle of our densely populated towns and cities, and the smoke from even small numbers of homes can dominate the pollution in a neighbourhood or across a city.
As an air pollution researcher, lots of people have begun to write to me worried that their children’s bedrooms are being filled by wood smoke from their neighbour’s chimney or that their elderly grandparent’s dodgy chest is being worsened by smoke that drifts into their house each winter’s evening.
