About Me

Hello, I’m Kate O’Leary, though people might know me as Kate Green, or ‘kg’.

I am currently a PhD researcher at Horizon CDT (University of Nottingham) writing up my thesis about privacy in social media based online health communities. I have taken an interdisciplinary and mixed-methods approach, with my research sitting at the intersection of human computer interaction and health psychology. You can read more about my PhD here.
