The Faculty Teaching and Learning Symposium will be held in the Marie Curie Lecture Theatre on 14 May 2019.

Prof Durning is:

He received his PhD from Maastricht University, on the topic of the influence of contextual factors on clinical reasoning. He has extended this work to include enhancing our understanding of clinical reasoning and its assessment to include unravelling the phenomenon of context specificity and incorporating biologic measures into this empirical work.
Prof Durning has published over 250 peer-reviewed manuscripts, 20 book chapters, and has edited 5 books. He serves on a number of national and international organizations and is the Deputy Editor for Research for Academic Medicine.
Looking forward to an enriching and motivating learning opportunity on the day!
