Research Overview

I am responsible for design and delivery of the communication curriculum across the whole MB ChB course, including undergraduate teaching, curriculum design, assessment and faculty development of communication tutors. I am the current Secretary of the UK Council of Clinical Communication.

I am the Director of Year 5 of the MB ChB course and I also lead on undergraduate medical student outgoing electives.

I am Deputy Director of LMS Postgraduate Medical Education programme.

I work alongside colleagues in Organisation and Educational Development’s ATLAS programme as a reviewer for Advance HE (previously Higher Education Academy) Fellowship applications.

I am also a research student with the Department of Education Research, where my interests are feedback, medical education policy, critical discourse analysis and teaching excellence. Outside the medical school I remain a practicing GP.
