Director of Graduate Entry Medicine
- General Practitioner
- Fellow of St Edmund Hall
I am currently Director of Graduate Entry Medical Studies within the Medical Sciences Division supported by an Associate Director and two Deputy Directors. I have overall responsibility for the University's 4-year Graduate-entry course.
My role is largely focussed on medical education although alongside this my research interests are both within medical education and cardiovascular disease. I have a keen interest in supervision and mentoring of students and trainees both clinical and academic.
At St Edmund Hall as Fellow by Special Election I organise and supervise the clinical education for the clinical students.
Outside of the University, I am external examiner for the University of Southampton's 4-year Graduate-entry programme and the RCSI School of Medicine.
