In the UK, medical market research agency Purdie Pascoe has re-located its office within London SW11, and appointed Debbie Higham as Research Director.

The firm, which was set up in 2008 by former Synovate Healthcare Execs Marianne Purdie and Guy Pascoe, is moving from Lavender Hill to Battersea Park Road.

Purdie Pascoe offers full service, global capabilities in both qual and quant research to the medical device and diagnostics industries, with services including data collection, interviewing and moderation and advanced analytics.

Higham (pictured) joins from TNS Healthcare where she served as Divisional Director, focusing on international ad hoc research. Prior to this, she worked at NOP Healthcare developing international ad hoc business with European and US-based clients, and at MORI, where she gained experience of designing and implementing healthcare research surveys for PR purposes.

'We are delighted to have Debbie on board,' states Marianne Purdie. 'She brings with her a wealth of skills and experience, and will enhance the services that Purdie Pascoe provides for its clients.'
