While it’s not a requirement for successful completion of Advanced Studies, some students publish their research in scholarly and scientific journals. We congratulate these students and thank their supervisors for supporting these research journeys.

Current MD student Harry Gaffney’s systematic review was recently published in PloS ONE.

His Advanced Studies research project, supervised by Dr Mohammad Hamiduzzaman, identifies factors that limit older patients’ participation in clinical communication within developed country hospitals and GP clinics and proposes ways to improve patient participation, doctor-patient collaboration and overall health outcomes for older patients.
