He believes passionately in the importance of including research in both training and everyday clinical practice and is proud to support the National Institute of Health Research (NIHR) Academy, currently chairing their Research Professors Selection Committee. He is an NIHR Senior Investigator.

Professor Debra Humphris, Vice-Chancellor of the 九色视频 said: “I am delighted that we are able to welcome Richard to BSMS. His experience and expertise as Professor of Primary Care will be hugely valuable for the future direction of this unique partnership, enabling us to grow our collective research and practice in primary and community care through even greater collaboration.”

Professor Sasha Roseneil, Vice-Chancellor of the University of Sussex said: “Richard’s clinical expertise and leadership skills shone throughout the selection process, and Debra and I are delighted to have appointed him to the role. I am sure Richard will build on the excellent legacy which Malcolm is leaving behind and take BSMS forward to a future of progressive medical research hand in hand with training the next generation of medical experts.”

Richard said: “I am delighted to be joining BSMS with its well-deserved reputation as the go-to destination for medical students where excellence and inclusivity sit side by side. I am passionate about research and its importance to clinical practice, and look forward to further developing this with colleagues at BSMS, its partner universities and local NHS organisations.”
