About Marie

Senior Research Fellow, based in Peninsula Medical School and Peninsula Dental School, working as part of the Collaboration for the Advancement of Medical Education Research (CAMERa)

I lead the CAMERa research group's professional regulation research theme.

My research crosses multiple disciplines including health policy, health services research, and clinical education. My background is as a qualitative social scientist, and I design, lead and collaborate across a range of study types including qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods studies, and systematic, narrative and realist reviews.

My current and recent research centres on:

  • The identification and management of concerns about health professionals' conduct and behaviour, including regulatory fitness to practise procedures and organisational performance management processes.
  • Challenges to healthcare professionals' wellbeing.
  • Professional migration and the challenges it presents to national regulatory systems.
  • Artificial intelligence (AI) and its implications for healthcare professionals and health regulation.
  • Medical revalidation and appraisal processes.
  • Sociology of professions.
