Claire Edwards

I provide strategic direction and leadership on graduate studies matters across all departments within the Medical Sciences Division. This includes developing and implementing new policy and procedures, graduate recruitment, securing and awarding studentship funding, promoting equality diversity and inclusion, and providing oversight of the divisional skills training programme. I act as an advocate for the Graduate School at all levels, both within the collegiate University and externally with funding bodies and other agencies

The Doctoral Training Centre provides a home for several cross-divisional DPhil programmes, and I provide oversight of all aspects of these programmes, including their funding and management, the performance of their students, and the provision of skills training.

I also lead a research programme in bone oncology, with a joint appointment in Nuffield Department of Surgical Sciences and Nuffield Department of Orthopaedics, Rheumatology and Musculoskeletal Sciences.
