Caitlin Notley

Caitlin Notley is a Senior Lecturer in Mental Health at the University of East Anglia, affiliated with Norwich Medical School. Her research focuses on tobacco harm reduction, addiction, and substance misuse, with particular emphasis on smoking cessation strategies and e-cigarette utilization. She employs mixed-methods approaches including qualitative analysis, systematic reviews, and process evaluations within randomized controlled trials.

Key research areas include vaping's health impacts, cessation interventions in marginalized populations (e.g., homeless individuals), and policy implications of nicotine products. Notley has contributed to major trials such as BabyBreathe (postpartum smoking prevention) and CoSTED (emergency department cessation programs). She emphasizes methodological rigor and terminology standardization in addiction research communication.

Her work integrates clinical, sociological, and economic perspectives, addressing disparities in smoking cessation outcomes across demographic groups. Notley advocates for evidence-based public health strategies and has critiqued vaping regulation approaches that may hinder harm reduction efforts.
