Professor Tim Dornan

School of Medicine, Dentistry and Biomedical Sciences

My work centres on how medical students, postgraduate medical trainees, and trained doctors learn from, and for practice.

I am interested in how patients and lay people can be deeply engaged in the education of clinicians, and how education can help doctors be patient-focused. One of my main research interests is how clinicians learn to prescribe, and the social influences on their learning. I use mainly qualitative, design-based research methodologies.
