Dr Nicholas Evans

Dr Nicholas Evans is an Academic Clinical Lecturer in Stroke Medicine. Nick is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and has a particular interest in how teaching as a doctor in training affects the trainee’s learning and professional development (a subject of his Master’s in Medical Education).

I have been a tutor on the Postgraduate Certificate in Medical Education since 2013. I am a passionate medical educator, having been a clinical supervisor for over a decade and regularly teaching undergraduate and postgraduate trainees. I have held posts in the School of Clinical Medicine responsible for running clinical examinations and served on the Faculty Board. I am currently joint lead for the Clinical School’s INSPIRE programme (supported by the Academy of Medical Sciences and the Wellcome Trust) that aims to promote research skills and participation amongst students. I am a Junior Research Fellow at Wolfson College, and also a lecturer at Anglia Ruskin University and University College London.

The range of individuals and experience studying on the Postgraduate Certificate in Medical Education makes for interesting discussions and a fantastic opportunity to learn from each other. It’s a great experience to facilitate the development of enthusiastic medical educators through both the organised sessions and role as a tutor.
