She returned to Leeds for her first doctoral position, where her ongoing research into ageing and the heart began. This developed during her senior doctoral position, funded as principal investigator by the BHF, followed by a Lectureship in Physiology. Sandra was appointed to a Lectureship in Biomedical Science at Hull in 2007. She is also a member of the Centre for Cardiovascular and Metabolic Research at Hull York Medical School.

Her research concerns the causes of cardiac dysfunction, particularly in association with ageing.
