His doctoral research at the Centre for Childhood Nutrition Research seated within the Responsive Feeding in Tough times (RFiTT) project. The project of his project is Dads at Mealtimes: Exploring fathers’ food parenting, feeding roles and experiences in tough times. This project aims to understand household food insecurity and household chaos, and their relationships with paternal feeding practices, in families with infants and young toddlers. It explored the perspectives of fathers and the factors that influence their feeding practices. Findings from this thesis can inform the development of early child feeding interventions that acknowledge the lived experience of fathers.
