Research Students
I am currently supervising and have in the past supervised quite a few research students (some of whom are listed below). As you would expect from my account of myself here, I am particularly keen to supervise students with interests in aspects of the social and cultural history of the twentieth century, women and gender in the Second World War, and oral history.
