Mary commenced her career in reproductive toxicology at Huntingdon Research Centre in 1975. She joined the Central Toxicology Laboratory at ICI in 1981, as a Study Director for developmental toxicity and reproduction studies and Work Group Leader of the foetal pathology unit. Over the years, Mary became a Study Director for a wide range of toxicological studies using different species and various routes of administration whilst retaining her expertise in reproductive toxicology.
