Featuring speakers and contributors:
Professor Andrée Le May, is working with John Gabbay as the joint ARC Implementation Lead. In that role they have been responsible for helping to implement research and to develop the ARC’s capacity for implementation. Andrée’s longstanding focus on research implementation began in 1986 as Specialist Nurse for R&D, a role created to move research into practice across NHS professional groups, specialties and organisations. Staying close to practice through research, service development and education, she has since then taught/mentored postgraduate students in knowledge management/mobilisation, change-management and clinical leadership. Her research expertise focuses on developing and evaluating implementation techniques, especially communities of practice, co-producing evidence-based practice/policy change and researching quality improvement skills. She is Professor Emerita of Nursing at the University of Southampton, Honorary Visiting Senior Fellow at the Institute of Public Health in Cambridge, Editor-in-Chief for the National Institute of Health Research’s Health Services and Delivery Research, Public Health, Global Health and Programme Grants for Applied Research journals and co-editor of the Journal of Research in Nursing.
Professor John Gabbay, is working with Andrée le May as the joint ARC Implementation Lead. In that role they have been responsible for helping to implement research and to develop the ARC’s capacity for implementation. A 1974 Manchester medical graduate, John spent several years in Cambridge researching and teaching on the social construction of medical knowledge in an historical context before specialising in public health. Whilst foundation director (1992-2004) of the Wessex Institute at the University of Southampton, which provided research-based intelligence to local public health practitioners, he also directed the NHS National Coordinating Centre for Health Technology Assessment. His research has mainly focused on the ways in which health professionals use research-based knowledge to inform their policy and practice, including (with Andrée le May) the development of the concept of ‘clinical mindlines’, which has become a widely-cited way of understanding how clinicians are able to deal with the contextual complexities of care that are not amenable to published guidelines. He is Emeritus Professor of Public Health at the University of Southampton, Honorary Senior Visiting Fellow at the Institute of Public Health, University of Cambridge, and a Senior Member of Darwin College, Cambridge.
