Current research
Geraldine recently Co-Led the NIHR SPCR funded OPEN project which informed the development of four E-learning for health sessions and is content author of one on delayed antibiotic prescribing. She continues to examine the data collected (see here for a link to the Health Education England training for prescribers developed as part of the OPEN study: E-Learning for Health Antimicrobial Stewardship Out of Hours: https://www.e-lfh.org.uk/programmes/antimicrobial-stewardship-ams-out-of-hours/).
She is currently co-lead on the Q-DaPS feasibility study with Prof. F Stevenson which will seek to develop a Trustworthy Research Environment for qualitative reesarchers to deposit their data which will then be made available to other researchers to conduct secondary analyses.
She works with Prof. T Kendrick on his PROMDEP and REDUCE studies which seek to optimise the identification and mangement of depression in primary care. She also works with Assoc Prof. F Bishop and Prof. H Everit on the TIPs 2 study, which seeks to trial a communication training programme to enhance the communication of empathy and optimism in primary care consultations.

Teaching
Ad hoc qualitative research methods support for early career researchers.
Module lead, Qualitative Methods in Public Health for the Masters in Public Health, Southampton University.
Supervisor to doctoral candidate Iris van der Scheer, UCL / funded by ARC North Thames.
This project is analysing an existing dataset of general practice consultations to identify how mental health is raised and discussed in GP consultations. The project is using Conversation Analysis (CA). Questions that are central during this analysis are: who initiates the talk about mental health? how and when in the consultation is this done? how is this initiation responded to? The results of this doctoral work will be used to reflect on and understand the perspective of patients and GPs on the management of mental health problems. Other qualitative method(s) (e.g. interviews or focus groups) will be used in this part of the study. The final part of the work will involve the identification of optimal ways, when communicating about mental health concerns in the consultation, that could be implemented in practice.

Biography
With a background in Medical Sociology and specialising in qualitative research methods, Geraldine works as a Professor in the Primary Care Research Centre (PCRC) at Southampton University. Her work encompasses many topics, including: understanding and improving the patient experience, optimising the delivery of helpline/telephone support, enhancing communication e.g. mental health / cancer/end of life, and antimicrobial stewardship and the management of common infections in primary care.
She uses Conversation Analysis (CA) to support the scientific examination of talk between patients and their health care practitioners. Using real audio and video recordings of health care interactions enables the identification of key communication challenges, as well as solutions to these; often grounded in the skilled communication strategies clinicians are already using in their day to day practice.
