Had fun today teaching #CurtinUni 3rd year medical students all about qualitative research - what it is (and isn't), its relevance to practice, how to optimise the quality of the research, and how to evaluate qualitative studies.

Check out this thorough and thoughtful review of my book (with Carrie Traher) on #child and #adolescent #grief - such lovely comments! All chapter contributors should be so proud. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Congratulations to Dr Jessica Keeley who graduated with a #PhD from #CurtinUni on Friday. She worked with lived experience collaborators to study maltreatment of people with intellectual disability by a family member. Really important stuff and 2 publications already! 🎉💐
