Marta Wanat

Post-Doctoral Researcher

I am a post-doctoral researcher in the Infectious Diseases Research Group at the University of Oxford. I am looking at patients’ and clinicians’ views and experiences of penicillin allergy testing. This is important as a significant proportion of people who think that they are allergic to penicillin are found not to be, when tested. We want to find out how we can encourage patients to undergo allergy testing.

Previously, my work has focused on the views of patients with cancer. My PhD explored the experiences of patients with a recurrence of bowel cancer and their partners.  Before my current post, I have worked on a study looking at the barriers and facilitators to implementing an evidence-based depression management programme for cancer patients.

I am passionate about qualitative research, and especially interested in how it can complement quantitative findings.
