In this month's episode we talk to Dr Ahmad Elmansouri, who is a medical doctor working in Belfast, and also a published author with extensive experience in various hospital and health care industries. He is skilled in medicine (obviously!) and medical education research and mentorship. In this conversation we focus on undergraduate medicine, medical training within the NHS and touch on some of the political issues that affect the future of our NHS.
In episode 61 Lauren returns to continue our conversation on her recovery from anorexia and to talk about her adult diagnosis of autism and ADHD. This certainly seemed to explain a few things for her and it is interesting to hear how she manages studying/working and social experiences - an inspirational listen, mostly because Lauren is so open and honest about how she has adjusted. Her original episode on struggling with an eating disorder while growing up is number 54, so be sure to check that out first if you want to hear her full story!

It's time for episode 60 and in this one we chat to Prof Sarah Richardson who is the newly appointed Dean of Learning, Teaching and Student Experience in The College of Arts and Humanities at The University of Glasgow. Sarah is formerly of Warwick University where she won many awards for teaching and achieved a prestigious National Teaching Fellowship. Her interests are in the area of gender, history and politics and you can often hear or see her on the tv or radio, especially if there is a Royal death, wedding or scandal! There will be a general election next year so things will get busy for her again at that time, so we are glad she could make time for the T&S podcast now. Enjoy!
Episode 59: Dr Ourania Varsou trained in Medicine before completing a PhD in neuroscience at Aberdeen. She is currently the anatomy subject lead for Dentistry and is leading on a number of innovations in anatomy education including ultrasound applications/ training and humanistic approaches to medicine. She was recently invited to give a seminar by the British Association of Clinical Anatomists on the subject of the rise of artificial intelligence in anatomy education. In this podcast we explore all those ideas in the context of higher education more broadly and deep dive into the whole topic and its history. This is interesting stuff - give it a listen.

This conversation covers the deep struggle for her education and her family, as she tries to recover from the debilitating impact it has had on her life.

Her role over the past year has been to provide effective student input into University decision making along with contributions to policy review processes on all matters pertaining to the student learning experience. We talk about the major challenges she has faced this year as well as her achievements. To add to the fun Prof Joe Gray pops up with a belated cheeky tribute to our 50th show via a poor quality recording (typical :)).
Episode 52 returns to a discussion on issues concerning senior educational leadership, as we catch up with Moira Fischbacher-Smith from The University of Glasgow. Moira is the Vice-Principal for Learning and Teaching and is responsible for driving the Universities educational strategy and so we get stuck into all that -  covering teaching, scholarship, promotions and more.... oh, and we might happen to mention her love of dogs a couple of times. Grab a cuppa for this one and enjoy!

50th Episode Special

50th Episode Special

2023-02-0101:27:24

The 50th episode! A real landmark for the Teaching and Scholarship Podcast. In this one we enter into a reflective mood -  casting our minds back to older shows and former guests from the last few years. We have even invited some of these guests to record us a little message and some updates on their academic practice. A little different to the usual stuff but hope you enjoy it.
It's time for episode 49 already and in this one, recorded in early December 2022, we were very much in the party spirit ahead of Christmas. We chat to students Gabriel and David about their time at Glasgow studying an anatomy degree during the Covid era, and then emerging from the other side. Another student was going to join us too, but she was rather hung over and overslept (we wouldn't want it any other way to e honest!) Enjoy the conversation.

In episode 48 we talk to Dr Emma Reid who is a neuroscientist at the University of Glasgow. This one goes off in all sorts of places - we cover Emma's interest in stroke research, a bit on teaching, then talk a liitle about her love of Rangers FC! After that it swings back to careers and then finishes off with spring onions and wild animals. Enjoy, we had an absolute blast.

In episode 45 we chat with Deputy Director of Education and Senior Lecturer in Psychology (at The University of Glasgow), Emily Nordmann. We have an all round fun catch with Emily about her research into the relationship between technology and learning, especially related to the application of lecture capture and how it can be used as an effective study tool for students from widening participation backgrounds. She also has a cool blog which has a post on the psychology of swearing, so we f***king definitely had to talk about that (without swearing, which was actually really hard).

In episode 44 we have a chat to JP Leach who is a Professor of Clinical Neurology and Honorary Professor within The School of Medicine Dentistry and Nursing at The University of Glasgow. JP is the head of undergraduate medical programmes at The University, so naturally we get stuck into conversations about about medical education, curriculum development, neuro anatomy and of course, the one thing everyone wants to talk to him about - his background in stand up comedy!
