Dr Rachel Spencer (Academic GP)
Head of Academic Primary Care
Academic Primary Care is a large multidisciplinary team of primary care researchers and teachers with clinical, social science and behavioural science backgrounds. Through research, teaching and innovation our goal is to develop new interventions, evidence and practices. We aim to push boundaries, challenge assumptions, and create solutions that are sustainable and relevant to the needs of diverse ageing populations with growing numbers of patients with long term conditions and multi-morbidity. We work closely with individuals and teams across WMS and the wider university that have an interest in primary care education and research, including the Warwick Clinical Trials Unit.
