RESEARCH OVERVIEW
Claire's research explores how experiential learning, particularly SP methodology, transforms communication skills development in health professions education. She collaborates directly with patient partners and knowledge users to co-create SP cases, ensuring simulated learning is grounded in real-world experience and lived perspectives.
This research-informed approach extends to her broader advocacy for Public and Patient Involvement (PPI) across the institution. As academic lead for the Simulated Participant programme and member of the PPI in Education Committee, she champions the integration of patient partnership principles into educational structures, governance and institutional practice.
