Introducing BMERG

By Sarah Allsop, Senior Lecturer in Medical Education at Bristol Medical School and Steve Jennings, Lead for the MSc Programme at TLHP, Bristol Medical School

Welcome to the blog of the University of Bristol Medical Education Research Group, from Bristol Medical School.

This Group aims to bring together all staff who have an interest in Medical Education Research both here at Bristol Medical School and beyond. We hope this group will foster a great sense of collaboration between all those involved in the education of healthcare professionals, and how they might evaluate, research and share their innovate work.

BMERG was conceptualised by our School Education Director, Annie Noble Denny to bring together all of the fantastic work at Bristol Medical School around a wide variety of Medical Education research topics. BMERG is co-led by Sarah Allsop and Steve Jennings. Both are happy to be contacted about the work of the group at brms-bmerg@bristol.ac.uk.

Our research spans a wide variety of project themes across both undergraduate and postgraduate medical education delivery including curriculum design and innovation, assessment and evaluation, digital learning environment, equality, diversity and inclusion, student wellbeing and supporting educators.

Over the course of the next year, BMERG will be launching a series of workshops and guidance around topics such as publishing, collaborating, and building your profile as an education researcher.
