The authors have moved away from traditional approaches to research methods, and include chapters on primary quantitative, qualitative and mixed methods research, evidence synthesis approaches, critical appraisal, research governance and ethics, and dissemination.

Informazioni sull’autore

Dr Stuart McClean is a social anthropologist and social scientist working at UWE, Bristol as a Public Health academic. He is leader of the MSc Public Health Programme, a successful and internationally recognised Masters. He is also a research theme leader in the Public Health and Wellbeing Research Group on ′Inequality, Disadvantage and Public Policy′. Stuart is a fellow of the Royal Society of Public Health, the Royal Anthropological Institute and the Higher Education Academy, and is the Book Review Editor for the international journal ′Health′, the co-editor of Folk Healing and Health Care Practices in Britain and Ireland (Berghahn, 2010), and more recently the co-author of Thinking About the Lifecourse (Palgrave, 2014). He holds a number of professional roles at the University, including Vice Chair of the Faculty Board and a member of the University Academic Board. He is also Pathway Lead (Health and Wellbeing) for the ESRC South West Doctoral Training Partnership.

Having graduated in Geography from the University of Sheffield in 1987, Nick firstly trained as a Registered General Nurse in London, and subsequently completed his MSc degree in Health Promotion at the University of Manchester in 1991. His growing interest in health inequalities led him into a career in health promotion, working with Wigan Area Health Authority as a Health Promotion Officer for HIV and AIDS. In 1993, he was appointed as a Lecturer in Health Promotion at Liverpool John Moores University, and since 1998 has worked at UWE Bristol as a Senior Lecturer in Public Health. In 2003, Nick completed his PhD with the University of Bristol, having completed an ethnography involving men in prison, exploring prison masculinities as determinants of health. This led to various funded research projects involving people in the criminal and youth justice systems, including a Big Lottery funded three-year study involving young offenders, undertaken in partnership with a music charity. Much of Nick’s research in the criminal justice health sector has involved developing relations with regional and national stakeholders across public, private and third sector agencies, and with colleagues at other UK universities. He is particularly interested in working with hard-to-reach groups, sometimes described as ‘challenging’ or ‘vulnerable’, including male and female young offenders, older prisoners, sex offenders and foreign national prisoners, across different provider organisations. A key objective of Nick’s work has been to explore, explain and tackle health and social inequality. His current research is seeking to involve people in the criminal and youth justice systems in peer led research mentoring and advocacy.?

Emma joined the Faculty of Health and Life Sciences at UWE in 2010 as a researcher and was appointed as Senior Lecturer in 2014.

Emma′s research interests are wide-ranging, although she is particularly interested in how the environment may influence health behaviour and health behaviour change. Recent and current research projects include:

Paul Pilkington is a Senior Lecturer in Public Health in the Department of Health and Social Sciences, Faculty of Health and Applied Sciences. He leads the Environment and Sustainability for Health Improvement research theme, based in the Public Health and Wellbeing Research Group. The theme advances research across the university on issues relating to healthy and sustainable environments, bringing together researchers from public health with those across the university and beyond.

Taking a socio-ecological approach to public health, Paul’s research interests centre on how the promotion of healthy and sustainable environments can impact on population level health and wellbeing. Paul has a particular interest in the relationship between the built environment and health, particularly issues relating to road safety (measures to reduce danger in the road environment) and spatial planning (the better consideration of health in the planning process).

Paul is an experienced teacher, and contributes to teaching on the highly successful MSc Public Health, and the Specialist Community Public Health Nursing programme, as well as other courses at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels across the university.

Paul is a Specialty Tutor on the Public Health Specialty Training Programme in the South West, leading the development and management of specialty training provision at UWE. He is also an Academic Supervisor, member of the Regional Training Committee, and an Assessor on the National Public Health Specialty Training Assessment Centre.
