This workshop will consider how to conduct qualitative research that has methodological integrity and that is recognised for its trustworthiness and relevance to its field.

During the  workshop, we will highlight some of the pitfalls associated with qualitative methodology and the key considerations and techniques which will ensure your research is rigorous and leads to high impact publications.

With reference to published reporting standards for qualitative research and published studies, we will consider how papers may be improved.

This workshop will be relevant for anyone conducting qualitative research (regardless of discipline) and to researchers looking to publish their qualitative research in peer reviewed journal articles.

The workshop facilitator will be Dr Lisa Newson.  Lisa is a registered Health Psychologist based in Natural Sciences and Psychology. She has particular expertise in qualitative methods across a range of health topics, including public health, health improvement, treatment development and the assessment of patient experiences of healthcare and illness.
