Dr Anita Laidlaw
I have been involved in healthcare education for many years including teaching medical students, dental nurses and health psychology students. Following postdoctoral research, I became an education focused academic and have developed and run accredited training, with a focus on behavioural science, clinical communication and research skills. I've always been curious about students and teaching and this led me to conduct educational research, both healthcare and higher education research.
I've always enjoyed supporting others to develop their careers. I have a particular interest in supporting others to engage in high quality educational research and have had previous leadership positions which have enabled me to do precisely that. My current position as Director of the Centre for Healthcare Education Research and Innovation (CHERI) also allows me to support others in educational research.
