I lead the Values Law and Ethics theme in the MBChB curriculum at Warwick Medical School and conduct research in clinical ethics and values based decision making. I am a founder member of the UK Clinical Ethics Network and train members of clinical ethics committees. I collaborate with international colleagues on the development and evaluation of clinical ethics support services. I work as a GP in an inner city practice with an ethnically and culturally diverse population. My clinical work both informs and is informed by my values based teaching and research.
