In over two decades at the University of Glasgow I have evolved from a postdoctoral researcher in Molecular Pharmacology into a Medical educator with particular interest in undergraduate selection and curriculum design/development. My main research interests are concerned with the predictive validity of the admissions criteria we use at the Medical School, and how the use of contextual data in the admissions process impacts on our efforts to widen access to the medical education locally.
I gained my PhD in Biochemistry/Molecular Biology for the study of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), specifically dopamine and opiate receptors, and published original research on the topic.
I was awarded prestigious fellowships from UNESCO (Research Centre of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences), the European Molecular Biology Organisation (EMBO, University of Kent) and the Wellcome Trust to pursue my postgraduate studies, and later my postdoctoral research (Universities of Kent and Glasgow).
As a senior academic in the medical school my substantial contribution is in teaching and assessment (first three years of undergraduate study), combined with organisational roles including co-director of Y3, Phase3 Lead and transition co-ordinator for direct entry to Y3 students (from St Andrews, Malaysia and Brunei).
I have been involved in outreach work with applicants from lower socio-economic backgrounds since the inception of the REACH programme in 2010, for which I received the Medical Directorate Award from NHS Education Scotland in the category 'Excellence in Transition'.
I am a member of INReSH (International Network for Researchers in Selection into Healthcare) and the Medical Schools Council's Selection Alliance and its board. I also serve on the boards of the National Medical Schools’ Widening Participation Forum and the UCAT Consortium.
