I am Chair of the RCGP Scientific Foundation Board which supports and oversees RCGP research funding and awards. I co-lead the NIHR Clinical Education Research Incubator for Clinical Education Research, and lead the Society of Academic Primary Care Education Research group. My research uses qualitive and evidence synthesis approaches to examine delivery and organisation of primary care clinical care and learning systems. My most recent book is called ‘Generalism in Clinical Practice and Education’. |

I joined the Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences as Nuffield Professor of Primary Care Health Sciences on 1 August 2024 and look forward to taking on the Head of Department role from 1 October 2024. I am particularly keen to work with colleagues from across the Department, Division, University and beyond to advance individual and population health through the delivery of high quality primary care provision globally. Prior to joining the University of Oxford, I held the Chair of Primary Care Research and Development at the University of Edinburgh where I also served as Director of the Usher Institute and on the University’s Executive as its Dean of Data. |

I am a senior research fellow at Imperial College London (NHLI) specialising in Clinical Education and Healthcare Services. My research interests include sustainable healthcare through organisational transformation, innovation and quality improvement, improving multimorbidity experience and outcomes through personalised care, preparedness for practice, and the translation of learning into practice, generalism in clinical education and practice, health promotion and disease prevention, and clinical learning through humanities-based approaches. I provide accredited faculty development to clinical educators and support them in researching and improving their educational practice. I have broader educational research interests relating to diversity & equitable participation, professional identity, the links between assessment and learning behaviour, academic motivation, practitioner well-being, educational value and self-efficacy. |

Pete leads the Sustainable Healthy Food Group in NDPHCS at the University of Oxford and is a fellow of the Oxford Martin School. His research focusses on evaluating population approaches to increase the uptake of healthy, sustainable diets. This includes influences of food choice, including food price, food labelling, marketing of foods and food accessibility. Pete is the Principal Investigator of the COPPER, SHIFT and SALIENT projects funded by NIHR, Wellcome Trust and UKRI respectively. Much of his work has been built around health models that estimate the population health impact of changes in diet (and other risk factors for disease). such as the PRIMEtime model, which estimates the long-term cost-effectiveness of dietary and physical activity interventions in the UK. |

I am an academic GP partner in West Oxfordshire with a particular interest in narrative medicine and the GP-patient relationship. Having initially pursued a career in plastic surgery and a Master’s degree in Public Health I have found my place amidst the stories of general practice. I greatly enjoy teaching medical students and GP trainees and try to demonstrate a balance between the values of traditional practice and ‘modern’ approaches. In my academic work I use a balance of narrative and ethnographic methodologies to try and depict the complexities of real-life general practice. Outside of work I have far too many interests, which include painting, gardening, and trail running. |
