Trish Greenhalgh
Professor of Primary Care Health Sciences
BIOGRAPHY
Trish Greenhalgh is a medical doctor and an internationally recognised academic in primary health care and digital health. She joined the Department in January 2015 after previously holding professorships at University College London and Queen Mary University of London.
As Director of the Interdisciplinary Research In Health Sciences (IRIHS) unit, Trish leads a programme of research at the interface between social sciences and medicine, with strong emphasis on the development, evaluation, spread and scale-up of digital innovations. Her research seeks to celebrate and retain the traditional and humanistic aspects of medicine while also embracing the exceptional opportunities of contemporary science and technology to improve health outcomes and relieve suffering.
Trish is Programme Director for the MSc and DPhil in Translational Health Sciences.
Her past research has covered the adoption and use of new technologies (including electronic patient records, assisted living technologies and remote forms of accessing and receiving healthcare) by both clinicians and patients; the evaluation and improvement of clinical services at the primary-secondary care interface, particularly the use of narrative methods to illuminate the illness experience in ‘hard to reach’ groups; the challenges of implementing evidence-based practice (including the study of knowledge translation and research impact); and the application of philosophy to clinical practice. She has brought this interdisciplinary perspective to bear on the research response to the Covid-19 pandemic, looking at diverse themes including clinical assessment of the deteriorating patient by phone and video, the science and anthropology of face coverings, and policy decision-making in conditions of uncertainty.
Trish is the author of almost 500 peer-reviewed publications and 16 textbooks. She was awarded the OBE for Services to Medicine by Her Majesty the Queen in 2001, made a Fellow of the UK Academy of Medical Sciences in 2014, elected an International Fellow of the US Academy of Medicine in 2021, and elected to the Faculty of Medical Leadership and Management in 2024. She is also a Fellow of the UK Royal College of Physicians, Royal College of General Practitioners, Faculty of Clinical Informatics and Faculty of Public Health.
Current research projects include);
- LOCOMOTION, a multi-site study of service delivery in long Covid clinics in UK, including the study of online multidisciplinary team (MDT) meetings and remote assessment;
- Remote by Default 2, a study of how GP practices are responding to the call to provide more remote services, funded by NIHR
Trish is a fellow at Green Templeton College. She currently has a full quota of doctoral students and a waiting list, so is not taking on new DPhils at this time.
