At the foundation of research concerned with professional training is the idea of an assumed causal chain between the policies and practices of education and the eventual behaviours of those that graduate these programs. In medicine, given the social accountability to ensure that teaching and learning gives way to a health human resource that is willing and able to provide the healthcare that patients and communities need, it is of critical importance to generate evidence regarding this causal relationship. One question that medical education scholars ask regularly is the degree to which the unique features of training programs and learning environments impact trainee achievement of the intended learning outcomes.

Optimising Musculoskeletal Patient Flow Through Digital Triage and Supported Self-Management: A Service Evaluation Set Within Community Musculoskeletal Care.

Introduction: Musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions are one of the leading causes of years of living with disability in the UK, resulting in pressure on the health system and the UK economy. In response to the increasing levels of patients accessing NHS care with MSK conditions across Sandwell and West Birmingham (SWB), a digital triage and self-management tool was implemented in 2023.

Aims: To optimise safety, efficiency, and choice within the community MSK service from the first contact through to specialist MSK care through digital triage and supported self-management.

Clinical Characteristics and Variation in Musculoskeletal Complexity of Different Ethnic Populations Accessing Sandwell and West Birmingham Hospital's MSK Service: A Service Evaluation.

Introduction: Health inequality is a global public health challenge, limited by insufficient high-quality data and analysis. Musculoskeletal (MSK) pain disorders are more prevalent among ethnic minority groups disproportionately affected by socioeconomic disparities and poor health outcomes. Ethnicity data collection enables NHS organisations and policymakers to understand specific healthcare needs and ensure equitable access and care provision.

Exploring the feeding practices of mothers of under-five children and how household members influence exclusive breastfeeding in Jigawa State, Nigeria - A qualitative study.

Child nutrition interventions in low-income settings are variably effective as strategies often focus on primary caregivers, with less attention given to other household members.

As part of a cluster randomised controlled trial in Jigawa State, we conducted an ethnographic process evaluation.
