00:00:01.062 --> 00:00:01.542
OK.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/204-0
00:00:01.542 --> 00:00:03.382
Good afternoon, everybody.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/212-0
00:00:03.662 --> 00:00:06.822
So hopefully the the microphone and
things working.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/223-0
00:00:06.822 --> 00:00:09.579
Thanks to the colleagues at the back
there,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/223-1
00:00:09.579 --> 00:00:12.462
just checking that the teams is live as
well.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/229-0
00:00:14.942 --> 00:00:15.582
We're good to go.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/239-0
00:00:15.582 --> 00:00:18.262
Excellent. So my name is Gavin Perkins.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/287-0
00:00:18.262 --> 00:00:23.774
I'm delighted to be the Dean of 糖心TV
Medical School and even more delighted to
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/287-1
00:00:23.774 --> 00:00:27.875
be here today to celebrate Lucy Hammond's
inaugural lecture,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/287-2
00:00:27.875 --> 00:00:33.454
a somewhat belated inaugural lecture due
to COVID and other pesky things coming in
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/287-3
00:00:33.454 --> 00:00:36.748
the way.
Given that Lucy became a professor back
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/287-4
00:00:36.748 --> 00:00:37.152
in 20.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/298-0
00:00:37.152 --> 00:00:39.582
22 but nevertheless,
it's fantastic to have.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/306-0
00:00:40.272 --> 00:00:44.032
The opportunity today to celebrate and to
learn about that journey.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/325-0
00:00:45.602 --> 00:00:49.509
Family and friends.
It really is a pleasure to welcome you
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/325-1
00:00:49.509 --> 00:00:51.562
here to 糖心TV Medical School.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/351-0
00:00:51.722 --> 00:00:55.732
I think Anna Noble Lecture really
provides an opportunity not only for the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/351-1
00:00:55.732 --> 00:00:59.528
academic colleagues in the audience to
learn about a person's journey,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/351-2
00:00:59.528 --> 00:01:02.042
but also for family and friends to
understand.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/357-0
00:01:02.042 --> 00:01:04.042
You know what is it that you know?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/370-0
00:01:04.042 --> 00:01:08.246
Mum, wife, sister,
brother goes off and does in their
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/370-1
00:01:08.246 --> 00:01:09.882
workplace and really.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/388-0
00:01:10.832 --> 00:01:14.719
The admiration that I think we should all
have for the achievements of reaching the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/388-1
00:01:14.719 --> 00:01:15.552
rank of professor.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/404-0
00:01:16.462 --> 00:01:19.942
And local lecturer is a key milestone in
an academics career.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/419-0
00:01:19.942 --> 00:01:24.898
Signific promotion to professor.
It's an important title because it's not
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/419-1
00:01:24.898 --> 00:01:28.582
something that is bestowed lightly upon
an individual.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/436-0
00:01:28.662 --> 00:01:34.502
It is the highest award that a university
can give to recognise academic excellence.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/459-0
00:01:34.902 --> 00:01:39.448
There's a meticulous selection process
that reflects our profound respect and
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/459-1
00:01:39.448 --> 00:01:43.994
admiration to mark somebody as such an
acceptable colleague to award them the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/459-2
00:01:43.994 --> 00:01:45.102
title of professor.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/480-0
00:01:46.042 --> 00:01:50.022
This honour acknowledges their remarkable
achievements in the invaluable impact
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/480-1
00:01:50.022 --> 00:01:54.002
that they've made on their field and the
broader landscape of higher education.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/521-0
00:01:55.432 --> 00:01:58.803
It also, I'm afraid,
sets high expectations for their future
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/521-1
00:01:58.803 --> 00:02:02.839
contributions as holding the title
professor implies a responsibility to
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/521-2
00:02:02.839 --> 00:02:06.708
uphold and champion the principles of
collegiality, academic freedom,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/521-3
00:02:06.708 --> 00:02:10.909
and the laurentless pursuit of knowledge
and practice for the betterment of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/521-4
00:02:10.909 --> 00:02:11.352
society.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/573-0
00:02:12.862 --> 00:02:17.987
Our vision at 糖心TV Medical School is
to transform health through innovative
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/573-1
00:02:17.987 --> 00:02:23.437
education and research excellence as Pro
Dean for education, Lucy leads by example,

00:02:23.437 --> 00:02:28.692

of our teaching focused academic staff,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/573-3

00:02:33.688 --> 00:02:34.662
full potential.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/590-0
00:02:36.112 --> 00:02:40.694
Her work is underpinned by disciplined,
specific expertise in sports medicine,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/590-1
00:02:40.694 --> 00:02:43.072
alongside her pedagogical research focus.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/616-0
00:02:43.702 --> 00:02:47.027
Activities Lucy's excellence is an
education, of course,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/616-1
00:02:47.027 --> 00:02:51.811
has already been recognised through the
award of a principal fellow of the Higher
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/616-2
00:02:51.811 --> 00:02:52.862
Education Academy.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/632-0
00:02:53.102 --> 00:02:57.684
An award that's limited to the UK's
leaders in higher education,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/632-1
00:02:57.684 --> 00:03:00.222
which recognises a sustained record.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/659-0
00:03:00.302 --> 00:03:04.569
A strategic leadership of high quality
learning which transforms practice and
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/659-1
00:03:04.569 --> 00:03:07.469
learner outcomes.
I'm really looking forward to your
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/659-2
00:03:07.469 --> 00:03:10.862
presentation, Lucy. The beautiful game,
reflections on elite.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/695-0
00:03:10.982 --> 00:03:15.024
Sport enquiry and education,
which I understand will bring together
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/695-1
00:03:15.024 --> 00:03:19.959
your journey from further education as a
college lecturer to Pro Dean education at
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/695-2
00:03:19.959 --> 00:03:24.775
糖心TV Medical School and considering
what sport can teach us both the good and
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/695-3
00:03:24.775 --> 00:03:26.262
the bad. Lucy, thank you.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/700-0
00:03:33.592 --> 00:03:35.832
Hey, that's can you hear me lovely.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/711-0
00:03:37.352 --> 00:03:39.672
Thank you, Gavin. For those kind words.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/731-0
00:03:39.672 --> 00:03:44.943
And I just also want to say thank you to
the organizers for today and thank you to
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/731-1
00:03:44.943 --> 00:03:46.912
you all for being here with me.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/760-0
00:03:47.272 --> 00:03:53.562
So I'm going to give some snippets of
things that I've been doing over the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/760-1
00:03:53.562 --> 00:04:00.355
years in this talk today and I'm going to
focus around my main passion and work,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/760-2
00:04:00.355 --> 00:04:02.872
which is of course, education.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/771-0
00:04:04.382 --> 00:04:10.462
Having developed my teaching focused
career, I'm going to tell you a bit about.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/795-0
00:04:12.072 --> 00:04:15.846
Inquiry,
which is where I've made my main teaching
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/795-1
00:04:15.846 --> 00:04:19.472
impacts and I'm going to talk about Elite
Sport.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/811-0
00:04:20.312 --> 00:04:24.933
I'm going to use this as a lens to look
at some of the things that I've learnt
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/811-1
00:04:24.933 --> 00:04:25.752
along the way.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/821-0
00:04:27.392 --> 00:04:30.752
And I decided to call my talk the
beautiful game.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/835-0
00:04:32.182 --> 00:04:37.196
And I wonder,
does anybody know who perhaps popularized
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/835-1
00:04:37.196 --> 00:04:40.062
that phrase? The beautiful game?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/837-0
00:04:43.332 --> 00:04:44.172
No.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/840-0
00:04:47.672 --> 00:04:47.952
OK.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/842-0
00:04:47.952 --> 00:04:48.552
So it was Pele.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/877-0
00:04:50.272 --> 00:04:56.034
Who called his so his autobiography was
beautiful game and it sort of was a bit
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/877-1
00:04:56.034 --> 00:05:01.581
of a philosophy that emerged out of
Brazilian football around the aesthetic,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/877-2
00:05:01.581 --> 00:05:06.192
but also the the sort of philosophy of
team play and and so on.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/894-0
00:05:06.192 --> 00:05:11.354
So I thought it was a nice title to work
with today and some of my work has been
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/894-1
00:05:11.354 --> 00:05:14.032
in professional football, so it it seemed.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/896-0
00:05:14.102 --> 00:05:14.662
Quite fitting.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/920-0
00:05:15.992 --> 00:05:18.520
So I'm going to be talking about Elite
Sport,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/920-1
00:05:18.520 --> 00:05:23.083
but I think it's important that we first
address the elephant in the room and that
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/920-2
00:05:23.083 --> 00:05:24.952
is that I am not an elite athlete.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/922-0
00:05:24.952 --> 00:05:26.232
You may have guessed.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/926-0
00:05:27.982 --> 00:05:29.182
And nor have I ever been.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/933-0
00:05:31.182 --> 00:05:33.702
But if I can make the clicker work.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/937-0
00:05:37.992 --> 00:05:39.672
There we go. Thank you.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/944-0
00:05:41.542 --> 00:05:45.182
I was a club swimmer, an OK club swimmer.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/971-0
00:05:46.942 --> 00:05:52.532
And I swam at Midlands and national level
and represented Northamptonshire for
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/971-1
00:05:52.532 --> 00:05:56.142
several years,
including a year as county captain.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/976-0
00:05:57.182 --> 00:06:00.302
And so there I am, back several years ago.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/991-0
00:06:01.982 --> 00:06:06.213
With my good friend and rival Nicola,
and we were always sort of switching
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/991-1
00:06:06.213 --> 00:06:07.342
between 1st and 2nd.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1013-0
00:06:07.652 --> 00:06:12.789
Between the two of us, and of course,
as everyone who participates in any kind
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1013-1
00:06:12.789 --> 00:06:16.821
of sport will know,
it's very normal to pick up some injuries
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1013-2
00:06:16.821 --> 00:06:17.732
along the way.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1031-0
00:06:17.812 --> 00:06:23.451
So I guess that was my first sort of
insight into sports injury and I've
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1031-1
00:06:23.451 --> 00:06:25.692
always loved watching sports.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1053-0
00:06:25.692 --> 00:06:29.601
I'm a big spectator of sports and as I
was going through school,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1053-1
00:06:29.601 --> 00:06:33.812
I really loved biology and the human body
and and how that all works.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1055-0
00:06:33.812 --> 00:06:35.052
So it was a sort of natural.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1061-0
00:06:35.742 --> 00:06:37.342
Choice for me to bring these things
together.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1073-0
00:06:38.312 --> 00:06:42.464
And think about, you know,
potentially going into this area as a
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1073-1
00:06:42.464 --> 00:06:42.912
career.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1084-0
00:06:44.882 --> 00:06:48.002
So I don't think it's going to advance.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1086-0
00:06:48.002 --> 00:06:49.202
Essentially, I do only.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1088-0
00:06:51.162 --> 00:06:51.842
Thank you.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1114-0
00:06:53.302 --> 00:06:57.537
So I studied sport rehab at the
University of Salford and this is
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1114-1
00:06:57.537 --> 00:06:59.142
graduating class of 2003.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1137-0
00:06:59.662 --> 00:07:05.286
So we learnt about the assessment,
treatment, rehabilitation of neuro,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1137-1
00:07:05.286 --> 00:07:11.148
skeletal injury and all of this was
within that sort of performance sport
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1137-2
00:07:11.148 --> 00:07:11.782
context.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1144-0
00:07:13.342 --> 00:07:13.902
And that's me.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1154-0
00:07:13.902 --> 00:07:19.022
3rd row back on the left and another one
of my colleagues on the back.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1156-0
00:07:19.022 --> 00:07:19.662
Row Brendan Skinner.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1164-0
00:07:20.412 --> 00:07:24.172
Is there and Brendan and I have gone on
to publish together.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1168-0
00:07:25.662 --> 00:07:26.862
In in recent years.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1204-0
00:07:28.502 --> 00:07:35.273
So did my first degree learn all about
working in this environment and decided
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1204-1
00:07:35.273 --> 00:07:41.702
on graduation that it was probably the
academic side of it that I was most
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1204-2
00:07:41.702 --> 00:07:42.902
interested in?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1212-0
00:07:43.062 --> 00:07:46.462
But I did do some work in practice.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1213-0
00:07:47.022 --> 00:07:47.942
Don't know if we can.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1216-0
00:07:49.702 --> 00:07:50.102
Advance.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1224-0
00:07:51.022 --> 00:07:52.342
Can I do it on there now?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1226-0
00:07:52.342 --> 00:07:52.982
That won't work.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1228-0
00:07:52.982 --> 00:07:54.142
OK, I'll do that one.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1249-0
00:07:55.662 --> 00:07:59.986
And so did some work in clinical rehab
settings,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1249-1
00:07:59.986 --> 00:08:04.222
private practice and then also some event
work.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1283-0
00:08:05.942 --> 00:08:11.560
So including women's performance cycling,
so just a few pictures from that,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1283-1
00:08:11.560 --> 00:08:15.183
you know,
some of the various settings where you
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1283-2
00:08:15.183 --> 00:08:20.285
end up working up curbside.
And one of those is in a crypt which was
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1283-3
00:08:20.285 --> 00:08:21.542
very interesting.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1287-0
00:08:21.812 --> 00:08:23.332
Setting to be doing that sort of work.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1296-0
00:08:24.942 --> 00:08:27.262
So this was this was great fun.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1313-0
00:08:27.262 --> 00:08:30.982
I continued doing some of this work up
until about 2017,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1313-1
00:08:30.982 --> 00:08:33.462
but don't do any work in practice now.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1330-0
00:08:34.102 --> 00:08:37.365
But as I mentioned,
it was the academic aspects that I was
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1330-1
00:08:37.365 --> 00:08:41.182
most interested in and was keen to get
involved in some research so.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1354-0
00:08:43.222 --> 00:08:47.102
I was very lucky,
unfortunate to be supported by Professor
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1354-1
00:08:47.102 --> 00:08:50.194
Bill Ribbons,
who's an orthopaedic surgeon and
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1354-2
00:08:50.194 --> 00:08:52.102
professor of sports medicine.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1370-0
00:08:52.252 --> 00:08:55.366
In Northampton,
who gave me the opportunity to get
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1370-1
00:08:55.366 --> 00:08:57.932
involved in some sports medicine research.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1405-0
00:08:59.462 --> 00:09:04.079
And we decided to have a look at the
injuries that were taking place in the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1405-1
00:09:04.079 --> 00:09:09.062
professional team sports in Northampton.
So in football, cricket and rugby union.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1426-0
00:09:09.662 --> 00:09:14.828
So that started me off on a journey of
exploring injury surveillance in
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1426-1
00:09:14.828 --> 00:09:16.622
professional team sports.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1438-0
00:09:16.822 --> 00:09:21.626
So injury surveillance is the process of
sort of measuring and monitoring all of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1438-1
00:09:21.626 --> 00:09:23.702
the injuries that are taking place.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1452-0
00:09:23.932 --> 00:09:28.978
And we utilise those data in order to
help us to develop preventative
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1452-1
00:09:28.978 --> 00:09:29.772
strategies.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1473-0
00:09:29.772 --> 00:09:34.657
So the model that you can see up on the
screen here sets out a series of steps
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1473-1
00:09:34.657 --> 00:09:37.812
and injury surveillance is the first step
of that.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1499-0
00:09:37.812 --> 00:09:44.076
So establishing what injuries are taking
place and then we want to understand a
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1499-1
00:09:44.076 --> 00:09:49.792
bit about how and why those injuries
occur. And once we understand that,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1499-2
00:09:49.792 --> 00:09:50.732
we can then.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1503-0
00:09:51.502 --> 00:09:53.022
Develop preventative strategies.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1511-0
00:09:54.252 --> 00:09:56.772
And see if they have efficacy.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1545-0
00:09:56.812 --> 00:10:00.789
We can then see if they are acceptable in
that environment and if it shows,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1545-1
00:10:00.789 --> 00:10:04.452
if they're shown to be effective,
then that ongoing process of injury
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1545-2
00:10:04.452 --> 00:10:07.278
surveillance,
we should see a reduction in the number
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1545-3
00:10:07.278 --> 00:10:09.372
of those injuries that are taking place.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1556-0
00:10:09.372 --> 00:10:13.803
So the work that I was doing was really
situated at step one and sort of reaching
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1556-1
00:10:13.803 --> 00:10:14.452
into Step 2.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1569-0
00:10:16.302 --> 00:10:23.262
And we we were sort of utilizing the
accepted methods from the field, so using.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1582-0
00:10:23.812 --> 00:10:27.052
Definitions of injury that, for example,
involved time loss.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1591-0
00:10:27.052 --> 00:10:30.052
So how do we know if an injuries happened?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1598-0
00:10:30.052 --> 00:10:32.812
Well, people can't compete in the match.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1614-0
00:10:32.812 --> 00:10:37.062
Or they can't undertake their training.
So we were capturing the data in the way
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1614-1
00:10:37.062 --> 00:10:38.532
that everybody was doing it.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1630-0
00:10:38.532 --> 00:10:42.956
But what I found along the way was that
that actually was missing an awful lot of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1630-1
00:10:42.956 --> 00:10:44.252
stuff, because actually.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1643-0
00:10:46.022 --> 00:10:50.942
In Elite Sport or any kind of performance
sport, really people don't stop.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1648-0
00:10:51.182 --> 00:10:53.982
So, so we we realized that we needed to.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1671-0
00:10:54.672 --> 00:11:00.377
Look a bit further and we wanted to
explore this idea of the sort of is there
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1671-1
00:11:00.377 --> 00:11:02.352
an iceberg phenomenon here?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1674-0
00:11:02.352 --> 00:11:04.112
What is under the surface?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1681-0
00:11:04.112 --> 00:11:05.272
What are we not capturing?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1702-0
00:11:05.272 --> 00:11:07.858
Because actually,
if we're going to use those data to
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1702-1
00:11:07.858 --> 00:11:11.643
formulate our preventative strategies,
it's pretty important that that data is
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1702-2
00:11:11.643 --> 00:11:13.512
representing what's actually happening.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1720-0
00:11:15.182 --> 00:11:21.717
So then sort of did some further studies
where we we took a very different
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1720-1
00:11:21.717 --> 00:11:22.502
approach.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1724-0
00:11:22.582 --> 00:11:25.142
So we didn't take the traditional
approach to surveillance.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1753-0
00:11:25.612 --> 00:11:30.536
But focused in on professional football
so that we could explore one sport in a
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1753-1
00:11:30.536 --> 00:11:35.275
bit more detail and football has also
provided us with many rich examples of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1753-2
00:11:35.275 --> 00:11:38.292
perhaps how not to do things over the
years and.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1787-0
00:11:40.222 --> 00:11:42.805
We looked at,
we did the traditional model,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1787-1
00:11:42.805 --> 00:11:47.501
but we also then looked for every match
in the teams that were in the cohort at
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1787-2
00:11:47.501 --> 00:11:50.378
the start of the match,
who was already injured.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1787-3
00:11:50.378 --> 00:11:52.022
So in those starting squads.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1793-0
00:11:52.022 --> 00:11:54.822
So we we looked at who was injured and
what did they have.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1823-0
00:11:55.332 --> 00:11:59.479
Who got injured during the match and who,
you know,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1823-1
00:11:59.479 --> 00:12:04.344
did they continue to play or did they get
removed from play?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1823-2
00:12:04.344 --> 00:12:08.412
And also who was who had surgery in the
offseason?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1850-0
00:12:08.412 --> 00:12:12.431
Because I'd observed this phenomenon of
people managing their injuries throughout
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1850-1
00:12:12.431 --> 00:12:16.450
the season and then when you've got that
little window of opportunity at the end,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1850-2
00:12:16.450 --> 00:12:18.852
that would be when the surgery would take
place.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1865-0
00:12:20.302 --> 00:12:24.159
So I had three professional football
teams in my Cohort Championship League
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1865-1
00:12:24.159 --> 00:12:25.022
One and League 2.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1893-0
00:12:25.332 --> 00:12:31.612
Teams and we found various things that
sort of met with what we were expecting
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1893-1
00:12:31.612 --> 00:12:35.587
around us,
missing important injuries through our
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1893-2
00:12:35.587 --> 00:12:38.132
traditional surveillance models.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1915-0
00:12:38.132 --> 00:12:41.775
So overall,
we found you can see on the graph here
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1915-1
00:12:41.775 --> 00:12:47.134
there was a that appeared in my cohorts
at least to be a sort of effect of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1915-2
00:12:47.134 --> 00:12:48.492
playing level here.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1923-0
00:12:48.492 --> 00:12:52.932
So it was much more prominent in the
lower leagues compared to those fire
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1923-1
00:12:52.932 --> 00:12:53.412
leagues.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1953-0
00:12:53.872 --> 00:12:57.161
And in fact,
for the League Two team that were in the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1953-1
00:12:57.161 --> 00:12:59.963
cohort,
only 15% of the games that took place
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1953-2
00:12:59.963 --> 00:13:03.192
that season had a fully fit match team at
the start.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1991-0
00:13:04.862 --> 00:13:09.876
About half of the injuries we picked up
this way were acute traumatic half were
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1991-1
00:13:09.876 --> 00:13:12.822
overuse,
identified a number of those injuries
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1991-2
00:13:12.822 --> 00:13:15.893
that were then managed at the end of the
season.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/1991-3
00:13:15.893 --> 00:13:18.902
Things like inguinal repair and
tendinopathies.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2003-0
00:13:18.902 --> 00:13:22.461
So managed all the way through through
taping, strapping,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2003-1
00:13:22.461 --> 00:13:24.302
injecting all sorts of things.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2010-0
00:13:24.652 --> 00:13:27.132
To kind of get them through to the end of
the season.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2058-0
00:13:28.582 --> 00:13:32.427
So overall,
there was at least one injured player in
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2058-1
00:13:32.427 --> 00:13:37.723
48% of all the games that I surveyed,
and I followed up with qualitative
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2058-2
00:13:37.723 --> 00:13:43.599
interviews with some of those players who
we identified as as playing while they
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2058-3
00:13:43.599 --> 00:13:47.662
were injured.
And there were lots of reasons that were.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2071-0
00:13:47.662 --> 00:13:50.882
Sort of influencing antecedent factors
for that,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2071-1
00:13:50.882 --> 00:13:54.102
and they broadly fell into sort of three
groups.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2080-0
00:13:54.452 --> 00:13:58.212
So there were personal factors.
So the age of the player for example.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2089-0
00:13:59.662 --> 00:14:01.462
Younger players at the start of their
career.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2096-0
00:14:01.462 --> 00:14:05.622
Older players trying to extend their
career hang on for as long as possible.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2117-0
00:14:07.422 --> 00:14:12.465
Things like when contracts were up for
renewal had a really big impact on when
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2117-1
00:14:12.465 --> 00:14:14.062
surgeries were scheduled.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2121-0
00:14:15.742 --> 00:14:17.902
Also something like.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2134-0
00:14:19.502 --> 00:14:23.181
Suspensions in the squad also reduced the
numbers of players that were available
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2134-1
00:14:23.181 --> 00:14:24.862
and I think this was the problem for.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2167-0
00:14:25.252 --> 00:14:28.226
For the League Two team,
they had already a small, you know,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2167-1
00:14:28.226 --> 00:14:31.883
they didn't have that resource,
that depth that the championship side had,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2167-2
00:14:31.883 --> 00:14:35.784
but they had a couple of injuries and a
couple of suspensions and then all of a
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2167-3
00:14:35.784 --> 00:14:38.222
sudden they've got very few players to
draw from.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2170-0
00:14:39.782 --> 00:14:40.382
So overall.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2199-0
00:14:42.222 --> 00:14:47.742
This was essentially a critical appraisal
of the methods for surveillance that we
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2199-1
00:14:47.742 --> 00:14:50.570
use and,
and we developed these these new
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2199-2
00:14:50.570 --> 00:14:54.542
approaches and identified this sort of
15% of of injuries.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2244-0
00:14:54.772 --> 00:15:00.318
That are not captured through through the
through the usual methods and some of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2244-1
00:15:00.318 --> 00:15:05.657
that the findings have gone on to be used
by International Olympic Committee
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2244-2
00:15:05.657 --> 00:15:10.787
consensus groups for how they now
recommend methods to take place and and
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2244-3
00:15:10.787 --> 00:15:14.600
interestingly,
that's in aquatic sports and athletics,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2244-4
00:15:14.600 --> 00:15:15.502
so it's sort.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2248-0
00:15:15.692 --> 00:15:17.452
Into these different environments.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2257-0
00:15:18.322 --> 00:15:20.602
So I was doing a bit of practice.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2275-0
00:15:21.162 --> 00:15:24.187
This was my pH.
D work and I did this part time over a
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2275-1
00:15:24.187 --> 00:15:28.202
number of years with my two boys during
that so it was busy, busy times.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2285-0
00:15:29.812 --> 00:15:32.092
But I fancied this idea of the academic
career.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2292-0
00:15:32.092 --> 00:15:36.812
So I thought probably better get some
teaching experience so.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2318-0
00:15:39.252 --> 00:15:42.812
I got a job. As Gavin mentioned,
working in further education,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2318-1
00:15:42.812 --> 00:15:46.373
so part time lecturer and I was teaching
B.Tech sport science.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2318-2
00:15:46.373 --> 00:15:48.012
So I taught a bit of a level.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2331-0
00:15:49.082 --> 00:15:53.362
And I then moved Northampton College,
moved to then Moulton College, which.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2348-0
00:15:55.252 --> 00:15:58.829
Is sort of positioned itself as the
further education equivalent of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2348-1
00:15:58.829 --> 00:16:00.092
Loughborough University.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2369-0
00:16:00.092 --> 00:16:04.108
So how did performance sport programmes,
but for sort of 16 to 19 year olds?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2369-1
00:16:04.108 --> 00:16:06.612
It's lovely to see David here from from
Molton.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2371-0
00:16:06.612 --> 00:16:07.652
Thank you, David for coming.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2397-0
00:16:09.172 --> 00:16:11.946
And so again, I thought B.
Tech programmes there,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2397-1
00:16:11.946 --> 00:16:16.440
but importantly for me this they had a
BSE in sports therapy which was validated
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2397-2
00:16:16.440 --> 00:16:19.492
for University of Northampton and we
developed an MSC.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2419-0
00:16:19.962 --> 00:16:25.067
While I was there as well,
so I got my sort of 80 experience where
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2419-1
00:16:25.067 --> 00:16:30.402
while I was there as well and I have to
say that Effie was brilliant.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2424-0
00:16:31.162 --> 00:16:33.442
I really learnt to teach in Fe.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2437-0
00:16:33.442 --> 00:16:36.967
Really, really.
Learn to teach 16 year old sports
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2437-1
00:16:36.967 --> 00:16:40.282
students are really great fun.
It's hard work.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2449-0
00:16:40.282 --> 00:16:44.522
It's really hard work and Fe lecturers if
you're full time and I was only ever.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2455-0
00:16:45.212 --> 00:16:46.492
Point 5.6, but you're full time.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2461-0
00:16:46.532 --> 00:16:48.372
You're teaching loads around 20 to 25
hours a week.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2465-0
00:16:48.802 --> 00:16:50.642
So it's seriously hard work.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2504-0
00:16:52.172 --> 00:16:55.876
And I think it develops in people a work
ethic and a resilience.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2504-1
00:16:55.876 --> 00:17:00.549
And it's amazing when I see some of my
former colleagues from those environments,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2504-2
00:17:00.549 --> 00:17:05.109
all of the things that they've gone on to
do, I think it really does, you know,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2504-3
00:17:05.109 --> 00:17:07.332
potholes, people very, very, very well.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2508-0
00:17:07.332 --> 00:17:08.412
It's tough. It's really tough.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2523-0
00:17:10.092 --> 00:17:15.492
And after I finished my PhD,
I then moved into higher education.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2530-0
00:17:15.532 --> 00:17:18.012
So I took a post at the University of
Bedfordshire.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2551-0
00:17:19.142 --> 00:17:23.266
And I was working with this wonderful
team. This of all the pictures I had,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2551-1
00:17:23.266 --> 00:17:26.142
this was the ones where they looked the
most normal.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2578-0
00:17:27.772 --> 00:17:32.057
So it was again,
great fun kind of couple of years there
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2578-1
00:17:32.057 --> 00:17:37.920
and we're we're all very happy to see
that picture of Dan with his antlers on
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2578-2
00:17:37.920 --> 00:17:38.372
again.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2593-0
00:17:40.292 --> 00:17:45.170
So this really gave me the opportunity to
learn so much more about HE and how he
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2593-1
00:17:45.170 --> 00:17:45.532
works.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2599-0
00:17:48.052 --> 00:17:49.892
It was a widening access university.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2618-0
00:17:50.282 --> 00:17:55.708
So really important work supporting
students who you know don't come from
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2618-1
00:17:55.708 --> 00:17:59.082
families that have been to university
before.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2653-0
00:17:59.082 --> 00:18:04.850
So lots of first generation students and
and it was it was a really fantastic
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2653-1
00:18:04.850 --> 00:18:10.840
couple of years working there before I
came to medical school in 2016 to work in
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2653-2
00:18:10.840 --> 00:18:11.802
the PGT team.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2660-0
00:18:12.642 --> 00:18:14.842
So it was in the PGT team for a couple of
years.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2680-0
00:18:16.332 --> 00:18:20.975
Took up WMS first role as director of
Undergraduate Studies and Deputy Pro Dean
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2680-1
00:18:20.975 --> 00:18:22.252
for education in 2019.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2701-0
00:18:22.962 --> 00:18:26.729
And then one year ago,
actually almost to the day,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2701-1
00:18:26.729 --> 00:18:31.162
it was this week,
last year I became protein for education.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2739-0
00:18:32.652 --> 00:18:38.108
So bit of a whistle stop tour of what got
me to here. And as you've heard,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2739-1
00:18:38.108 --> 00:18:44.220
I really chose my passion of teaching and
education of where I wanted to go with my
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2739-2
00:18:44.220 --> 00:18:47.930
career and and forge that teaching
focused career.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2739-3
00:18:47.930 --> 00:18:51.132
And that was really quite an explicit
move.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2742-0
00:18:51.132 --> 00:18:51.772
When I when I came.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2753-0
00:18:52.082 --> 00:18:55.805
Here to 糖心TV because I came on what
was known at that point as a teaching
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2753-1
00:18:55.805 --> 00:18:56.482
only contract.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2760-0
00:18:57.932 --> 00:19:01.052
Of course,
this is a research intensive institution.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2790-0
00:19:02.652 --> 00:19:06.380
So I really love this picture,
which is taken from a blog written by
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2790-1
00:19:06.380 --> 00:19:10.542
some people from Monash University,
and it's about the struggle for identity
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2790-2
00:19:10.542 --> 00:19:12.812
that some teaching focused academics have.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2800-0
00:19:14.852 --> 00:19:16.852
And I am often in my role now.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2808-0
00:19:16.852 --> 00:19:21.932
Ask for career advice by people who are
looking to establish their teaching.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2812-0
00:19:22.282 --> 00:19:23.602
Focused career.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2846-0
00:19:23.802 --> 00:19:28.432
So I'm going to spend a bit of time now
just talking about some of the sort of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2846-1
00:19:28.432 --> 00:19:33.298
lessons and reflections that I have from
elite sport and that background and think
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2846-2
00:19:33.298 --> 00:19:36.522
about what this means for me in the
education context.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2860-0
00:19:37.972 --> 00:19:42.572
So the first thing that I want to talk
about is marginal gains.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2879-0
00:19:42.572 --> 00:19:45.070
I don't know if you've heard of this
approach,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2879-1
00:19:45.070 --> 00:19:49.269
but this really came from that elite
cycling environment so I thought it was a
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2879-2
00:19:49.269 --> 00:19:50.332
nice place to start.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2915-0
00:19:51.002 --> 00:19:55.410
Having done some work in cycling before,
but Dave Brailsford,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2915-1
00:19:55.410 --> 00:20:00.673
who was the head of Team Sky and of
British Cycling kind of really pushed
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2915-2
00:20:00.673 --> 00:20:04.442
forward this approach,
which was looking for the 1%.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2945-0
00:20:04.442 --> 00:20:10.490
So if we can get 1% improvement in lots
and lots of different areas collectively,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2945-1
00:20:10.490 --> 00:20:15.506
this adds up to something quite
meaningful performance improvement,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2945-2
00:20:15.506 --> 00:20:18.162
so can add up to a significant gain.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2948-0
00:20:18.972 --> 00:20:20.412
And this.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2981-0
00:20:20.882 --> 00:20:25.575
Approach is often taken a lot in in in
the sports environment,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2981-1
00:20:25.575 --> 00:20:31.311
and I wonder if and around 10 years ago
there was lots of things in the news
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2981-2
00:20:31.311 --> 00:20:37.122
about athletes getting into freezing cold
chambers to improve their recovery.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2999-0
00:20:37.122 --> 00:20:42.863
How can I get the pictures to come up so
the Welsh Rugby Union team were quite
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/2999-1
00:20:42.863 --> 00:20:46.642
famously doing this and the idea was if
you try to?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3007-0
00:20:47.412 --> 00:20:49.572
If you can accelerate that process of
recovery.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3032-0
00:20:50.042 --> 00:20:55.639
Then you can get back training more
quickly and again you can can can sort of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3032-1
00:20:55.639 --> 00:20:59.802
develop further be be ready sooner for
for the next game.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3056-0
00:20:59.962 --> 00:21:06.398
So, like many things in sports medicine,
sometimes the practice is a little bit
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3056-1
00:21:06.398 --> 00:21:11.547
ahead of the evidence,
and so hence the headline here after the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3056-2
00:21:11.547 --> 00:21:14.202
Cochran Review was was published.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3070-0
00:21:15.012 --> 00:21:17.944
On on whole body cryotherapy.
But I was doing the really interesting
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3070-1
00:21:17.944 --> 00:21:19.092
position at Molton College.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3092-0
00:21:19.482 --> 00:21:23.567
Being this sort of performance sport
environment that we had a whole body
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3092-1
00:21:23.567 --> 00:21:27.322
cryotherapy chamber and that was part of
the commercial facilities.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3126-0
00:21:27.322 --> 00:21:31.987
So if you're not familiar with it,
the top left picture you see,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3126-1
00:21:31.987 --> 00:21:37.370
the gentlemen are going into going
through a door and they're going into a
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3126-2
00:21:37.370 --> 00:21:42.682
chamber which is liquid nitrogen called
air -60掳 in there for 30 seconds.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3133-0
00:21:43.002 --> 00:21:46.242
There's an internal door through to the
next chamber.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3138-0
00:21:47.012 --> 00:21:48.212
So this, that's the warm up.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3164-0
00:21:49.202 --> 00:21:55.383
So the next Chamber -110掳 for two minutes,
and then you come out the other side and
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3164-1
00:21:55.383 --> 00:22:00.682
we can see one of my colleagues there saw
coming out of the other side.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3186-0
00:22:02.052 --> 00:22:05.060
So I was really lucky with my colleagues
at Malton.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3186-1
00:22:05.060 --> 00:22:08.012
We got to do some research using these
facilities.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3200-0
00:22:08.012 --> 00:22:12.644
So Solcuttle and I undertook a number of
different studies and when we looked at
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3200-1
00:22:12.644 --> 00:22:15.732
the evidence and we looked at what people
were doing.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3202-0
00:22:17.492 --> 00:22:17.812
What we.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3205-0
00:22:18.082 --> 00:22:18.762
Sort of.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3217-0
00:22:18.802 --> 00:22:22.362
We it raised a bit of a question for us
that we had these.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3258-0
00:22:22.482 --> 00:22:27.504
You know, if you picture a rugby team,
you've got all sorts of shapes and sizes
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3258-1
00:22:27.504 --> 00:22:32.465
of of people within that within that
group of 15 players and everyone was kind
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3258-2
00:22:32.465 --> 00:22:37.111
of going in for the same amount of time
and it's sort of quite arbitrary,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3258-3
00:22:37.111 --> 00:22:38.932
arbitrary amount and because.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3263-0
00:22:38.962 --> 00:22:40.682
It's this is an air exposure.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3272-0
00:22:42.212 --> 00:22:46.932
We we thought, well, hold on.
Are people getting essentially the same?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3298-0
00:22:47.202 --> 00:22:49.322
Exposures,
you know they're getting the same amount
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3298-1
00:22:49.322 --> 00:22:51.361
of time,
but are they getting the same exposures,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3298-2
00:22:51.361 --> 00:22:54.460
their body surface area is probably quite
different. Those sorts of things,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3298-3
00:22:54.460 --> 00:22:55.562
different shapes and sizes.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3316-0
00:22:55.562 --> 00:23:01.331
So we investigated this across a number
of studies and we were looking at skin
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3316-1
00:23:01.331 --> 00:23:03.522
temperature, core temperature.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3334-0
00:23:03.522 --> 00:23:08.909
We looked at ventilatory responses and
and we found, as we predicted,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3334-1
00:23:08.909 --> 00:23:13.682
that the sort of morphology of people had
quite an impact on.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3337-0
00:23:14.412 --> 00:23:15.052
Their degrees of cooling.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3358-0
00:23:15.402 --> 00:23:21.253
And that was particularly noticeable with
sort of sex based differences and really
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3358-1
00:23:21.253 --> 00:23:25.202
around degrees of body fat and degrees of
of lean mass.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3388-0
00:23:25.522 --> 00:23:30.303
So this was, you know,
kind of odd little segue into things in,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3388-1
00:23:30.303 --> 00:23:34.188
in the sort of performance setting that
that I did.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3388-2
00:23:34.188 --> 00:23:38.522
But this practice was really around
looking for those 1%.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3401-0
00:23:41.132 --> 00:23:43.972
And I think the approach that we took was
trying to ask something.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3405-0
00:23:43.972 --> 00:23:45.172
It was a bit more fundamental.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3449-0
00:23:45.522 --> 00:23:48.740
Actually,
so are we really measuring what we or
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3449-1
00:23:48.740 --> 00:23:54.237
doing what we're intending to do here and
a bit like with the injury surveillance
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3449-2
00:23:54.237 --> 00:23:57.723
work I did,
it was that sort of critical foundation
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3449-3
00:23:57.723 --> 00:24:03.422
that I was interested in getting that bit
right. And I think that underpins my Phil.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3452-0
00:24:03.522 --> 00:24:04.642
In many ways.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3464-0
00:24:06.092 --> 00:24:08.612
Which is to really focus on getting the
basics right.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3477-0
00:24:08.612 --> 00:24:13.184
So when I think about this idea of
marginal gains or 1% in an education
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3477-1
00:24:13.184 --> 00:24:13.692
context.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3511-0
00:24:14.402 --> 00:24:19.127
I can't really feel the fit very well
because of the messy reality of, you know,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3511-1
00:24:19.127 --> 00:24:22.278
the social environment of the classroom
or, you know,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3511-2
00:24:22.278 --> 00:24:26.362
whatever funding cuts are coming our way
this week and and and so on.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3536-0
00:24:26.922 --> 00:24:32.261
So this approach of getting the basics
right has has really sort of underpinned
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3536-1
00:24:32.261 --> 00:24:37.600
the work that I've done and I think that
background in post 92 universities and
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3536-2
00:24:37.600 --> 00:24:39.202
further education where.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3544-0
00:24:40.012 --> 00:24:42.772
Things you know very,
very teaching focused by design.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3584-0
00:24:43.282 --> 00:24:47.756
Has probably really sort of developed
that in me and when I think about some of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3584-1
00:24:47.756 --> 00:24:51.560
the practice that I've seen in those
environments around, you know,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3584-2
00:24:51.560 --> 00:24:54.245
great assessment design,
really great teaching,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3584-3
00:24:54.245 --> 00:24:56.762
student support is really,
really excellent.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3596-0
00:24:56.802 --> 00:25:01.553
And I think there's an awful lot for
institutions like 糖心TV to learn from
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3596-1
00:25:01.553 --> 00:25:02.602
places like that.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3619-0
00:25:04.372 --> 00:25:08.247
I want to say something also about
getting the basics right in terms in
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3619-1
00:25:08.247 --> 00:25:11.692
terms of sort of where I've made my main
teaching contribution.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3628-0
00:25:12.372 --> 00:25:16.052
And I mentioned my second E was inquiry.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3669-0
00:25:17.362 --> 00:25:20.509
So you know,
I'm thinking about sort of student
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3669-1
00:25:20.509 --> 00:25:25.297
research inquiry here and all the way
through my career at each of those
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3669-2
00:25:25.297 --> 00:25:30.150
institutions that I've worked at,
I've always led the dissertation or the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3669-3
00:25:30.150 --> 00:25:33.888
project module,
and it's been my absolute favorite thing
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3669-4
00:25:33.888 --> 00:25:34.282
to do.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3679-0
00:25:34.962 --> 00:25:39.865
I love that sort of feeling of sort of
holding the students hands at the start
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3679-1
00:25:39.865 --> 00:25:40.362
or like.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3695-0
00:25:41.132 --> 00:25:43.925
On their like your kids on the bike where
you're holding the Sabbat and running
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3695-1
00:25:43.925 --> 00:25:45.252
along with them, and then you sort of.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3740-0
00:25:45.762 --> 00:25:51.497
Let them go and and see them cycling off
so that research project bit always feels
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3740-1
00:25:51.497 --> 00:25:54.537
a bit like that to me. And it's been,
yeah,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3740-2
00:25:54.537 --> 00:25:59.858
it's been my joy to to lead on some of
those things including six years here
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3740-3
00:25:59.858 --> 00:26:02.692
within PGT with a brilliant team of acad.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3747-0
00:26:03.002 --> 00:26:05.362
And Portfolio 2 colleagues.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3767-0
00:26:05.642 --> 00:26:11.011
So when I came here to medical school,
I was really struck by the diversity of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3767-1
00:26:11.011 --> 00:26:14.682
our student groups and what they were
really sort of.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3775-0
00:26:15.262 --> 00:26:18.702
Getting from this research component.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3798-0
00:26:20.452 --> 00:26:24.739
And it felt like there was, you know,
some some sort of different benefits for
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3798-1
00:26:24.739 --> 00:26:27.994
different people.
But we were perhaps approaching it in one
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3798-2
00:26:27.994 --> 00:26:28.212
way.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3802-0
00:26:28.212 --> 00:26:29.612
So I was.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3823-0
00:26:30.412 --> 00:26:32.986
I really sort of, I suppose,
noticed those students.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3823-1
00:26:32.986 --> 00:26:36.192
We had some who they were here and they
were doing that research.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3823-2
00:26:36.192 --> 00:26:37.892
They wanted to go on to do a pH. D.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3834-0
00:26:37.892 --> 00:26:43.671
So it was really that sort of almost
first apprenticeship type training for
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3834-1
00:26:43.671 --> 00:26:44.052
that.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3853-0
00:26:45.122 --> 00:26:48.873
That,
but we also had lots of students who were
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3853-1
00:26:48.873 --> 00:26:51.922
not going to pursue an academic career.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3860-0
00:26:51.922 --> 00:26:55.202
There are people working in practice
doing really great work.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3897-0
00:26:56.692 --> 00:27:03.520
Many of them in sort of NHS and GP
settings and what they were here for was
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3897-1
00:27:03.520 --> 00:27:08.551
to advance their knowledge,
to take back into practice,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3897-2
00:27:08.551 --> 00:27:13.852
not to go on to be, you know,
researchers and this really.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3938-0
00:27:15.002 --> 00:27:18.312
Kind of crystallized for me around this
idea around. You know.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3938-1
00:27:18.312 --> 00:27:21.203
Potentially we've got some different
groups of people,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3938-2
00:27:21.203 --> 00:27:25.512
people who were developing to ultimately
become professional researchers compared
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3938-3
00:27:25.512 --> 00:27:29.402
to people who we really want to develop,
to be researching professionals.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3958-0
00:27:29.562 --> 00:27:34.078
So I sort of wanted to get under the
bonnet a bit of what we were doing with
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3958-1
00:27:34.078 --> 00:27:38.711
these students because we were, you know,
doing kind of one and the same thing
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3958-2
00:27:38.711 --> 00:27:39.122
across.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/3966-0
00:27:39.812 --> 00:27:43.892
And and I noticed that some of the
students.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4005-0
00:27:44.082 --> 00:27:46.704
Who? You know,
many of the students who were in the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4005-1
00:27:46.704 --> 00:27:50.486
research and professionals group,
if I can call them that, were, you know,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4005-2
00:27:50.486 --> 00:27:52.806
doing things like service evaluation,
audits,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4005-3
00:27:52.806 --> 00:27:56.386
really important work to understand
what's happening in their practice
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4005-4
00:27:56.386 --> 00:27:59.362
settings in order to make improvements
there. But we were.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4036-0
00:27:59.362 --> 00:28:03.298
Teaching them how to do randomised
control trials and we were teaching them
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4036-1
00:28:03.298 --> 00:28:06.457
complicated regression statistics and
those sorts of things,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4036-2
00:28:06.457 --> 00:28:10.394
and it sort of didn't fit then with that
paradigm of what those people were
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4036-3
00:28:10.394 --> 00:28:11.482
actually going to do.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4044-0
00:28:12.252 --> 00:28:15.052
So in the spirit of wanting to kind of
get the basics.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4047-0
00:28:15.562 --> 00:28:16.122
That's right.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4083-0
00:28:16.122 --> 00:28:18.760
I was like,
we really need to teach them how to to do
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4083-1
00:28:18.760 --> 00:28:22.620
the things that that they're going to be
able to do and it's really important.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4083-2
00:28:22.620 --> 00:28:26.626
They know about all those other things as
well because they they need to be those
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4083-3
00:28:26.626 --> 00:28:28.532
critical consumers of evidence in that.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4111-0
00:28:28.532 --> 00:28:32.814
Research setting,
but to be confident to do their projects,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4111-1
00:28:32.814 --> 00:28:38.524
I think we needed to equip them a bit
better and it was perhaps reassuring that
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4111-2
00:28:38.524 --> 00:28:42.522
colleagues at Monash were doing exactly
the same as us.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4121-0
00:28:43.242 --> 00:28:49.602
So we teamed up and came together on a
project.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4138-0
00:28:51.012 --> 00:28:54.732
Which was supported by the Monash 糖心TV
Alliance that we call don't quit.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4148-0
00:28:54.732 --> 00:28:58.492
So development of novelty novel tools for
quality improvement.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4152-0
00:28:58.492 --> 00:29:00.892
Training it was myself.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4161-0
00:29:01.252 --> 00:29:04.412
Gups Chouhan, Simon Jenkins and rich clay.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4166-0
00:29:04.452 --> 00:29:06.692
From 糖心TV and Meagan Wallace.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4178-0
00:29:06.692 --> 00:29:10.732
Tina Brock Kelly Anne Bowles and Bianca
Levkovic from Monash.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4182-0
00:29:11.282 --> 00:29:13.322
And we came together.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4186-0
00:29:14.722 --> 00:29:15.722
We brainstormed.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4234-0
00:29:15.722 --> 00:29:19.617
We workshopped,
we storyboarded and then through Richards
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4234-1
00:29:19.617 --> 00:29:24.857
witherree we created a beautiful set of
online learning resources that can be
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4234-2
00:29:24.857 --> 00:29:29.155
flexibly used for students who are
undergraduate, postgraduate,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4234-3
00:29:29.155 --> 00:29:32.984
pre registration,
post registration in any international
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4234-4
00:29:32.984 --> 00:29:33.522
setting.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4251-0
00:29:35.132 --> 00:29:39.332
And this is, you know,
some work that I'm really really proud of.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4257-0
00:29:40.692 --> 00:29:44.132
This resource is used at 糖心TV, 糖心TV.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4261-0
00:29:44.482 --> 00:29:45.082
At Monash.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4311-0
00:29:45.362 --> 00:29:48.884
At Monash Malaysia,
it's used across medicine,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4311-1
00:29:48.884 --> 00:29:55.105
pharmacy and allied health courses and we
did some evaluation and it did show that
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4311-2
00:29:55.105 --> 00:30:00.726
there were significant increases in Qi
knowledge and skills as a result of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4311-3
00:30:00.726 --> 00:30:06.722
undertaking this learning and one of the
things that I feel really proud of is.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4327-0
00:30:06.722 --> 00:30:11.299
That these resources are now freely
available to healthcare professionals in
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4327-1
00:30:11.299 --> 00:30:13.202
low and middle income countries.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4357-0
00:30:13.682 --> 00:30:19.114
Through a partnership that and rich
really championed this with the with the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4357-1
00:30:19.114 --> 00:30:24.759
Dutch third sector organization called
the Healthy Foundation to support people
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4357-2
00:30:24.759 --> 00:30:28.922
who would not otherwise have access to
this sort of thing.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4375-0
00:30:30.572 --> 00:30:35.794
So just a bit of a summary of some of the
work that I've done in that sort of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4375-1
00:30:35.794 --> 00:30:36.732
inquiry space.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4386-0
00:30:38.452 --> 00:30:43.092
But I want to keep moving forwards and
talk now about another.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4399-0
00:30:43.442 --> 00:30:48.922
Lesson from sport and that is around
early specialisation.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4401-0
00:30:48.922 --> 00:30:50.082
How cute is that picture?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4408-0
00:30:51.572 --> 00:30:53.132
Had a lot of fun Googling for.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4416-0
00:30:55.212 --> 00:30:57.692
Children in masters caddy outfits.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4446-0
00:30:59.292 --> 00:31:02.387
So, early specialisation,
you heard a bit about that environment at
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4446-1
00:31:02.387 --> 00:31:04.846
Malton College,
which was that sort of development of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4446-2
00:31:04.846 --> 00:31:07.532
those youth athletes on that sort of
specialised pathways.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4460-0
00:31:09.132 --> 00:31:13.852
And you may also have heard of cuts.
The myth of the 10,000 hours rule.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4493-0
00:31:14.202 --> 00:31:18.661
Say this idea that it takes 10,
000 hours of practicing something to
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4493-1
00:31:18.661 --> 00:31:22.345
achieve mastery,
and therefore if it takes 10,000 hours,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4493-2
00:31:22.345 --> 00:31:25.642
it follows that you'd probably better
start early.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4520-0
00:31:27.532 --> 00:31:31.014
So actually the very much the practice in
sport,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4520-1
00:31:31.014 --> 00:31:36.772
but the evidence is that this can perhaps
be detrimental to athlete development.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4535-0
00:31:37.532 --> 00:31:42.745
So it can lead to development of injury
through that sort of repetitive overuse
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4535-1
00:31:42.745 --> 00:31:43.332
overload.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4547-0
00:31:43.922 --> 00:31:47.802
Of certain tissues can also lead to
issues around burnout.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4555-0
00:31:48.562 --> 00:31:51.122
So other models have emerged.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4603-0
00:31:51.162 --> 00:31:56.676
So, for example, early diversification,
so encouraging people to undertake their
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4603-1
00:31:56.676 --> 00:32:00.284
primary sport,
but also to undertake other sports as
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4603-2
00:32:00.284 --> 00:32:03.348
well.
So they're getting cross training type
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4603-3
00:32:03.348 --> 00:32:08.249
exposures or early engagement.
So focusing within the primary sport but
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4603-4
00:32:08.249 --> 00:32:11.722
ensuring that all of the different facets
of that.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4605-0
00:32:12.372 --> 00:32:12.692
Are trained.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4610-0
00:32:13.202 --> 00:32:16.162
To not be too focused too early.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4621-0
00:32:17.652 --> 00:32:21.332
So how is this relevant to teaching
focused career?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4662-0
00:32:23.092 --> 00:32:27.454
So I think probably from what you've seen
from my background,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4662-1
00:32:27.454 --> 00:32:33.152
I really was not specialising early at
all and I think that I have always really
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4662-2
00:32:33.152 --> 00:32:38.640
tried to develop breadth in what I've
done and I think of this is like having
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4662-3
00:32:38.640 --> 00:32:40.892
lots of tools in the toolkit so.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4673-0
00:32:42.692 --> 00:32:45.640
Over the time that I have, you know,
over the various things I've done,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4673-1
00:32:45.640 --> 00:32:46.132
I've always.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4685-0
00:32:46.442 --> 00:32:50.602
Made myself available to get involved in
all sorts of weird and wonderful things.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4702-0
00:32:50.602 --> 00:32:54.058
Sometimes that are really relevant,
and sometimes they feel perhaps a bit
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4702-1
00:32:54.058 --> 00:32:56.300
less relevant,
but I've always learnt something
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4702-2
00:32:56.300 --> 00:32:57.562
important from all of them.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4718-0
00:32:59.092 --> 00:33:04.312
And that's involved working across
undergrad post grad in accredited courses,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4718-1
00:33:04.312 --> 00:33:06.052
non accredited programmes.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4733-0
00:33:08.012 --> 00:33:11.961
Partnership franchise,
transnational arrangements,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4733-1
00:33:11.961 --> 00:33:14.052
Cross departmental working.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4736-0
00:33:15.692 --> 00:33:16.572
Lots of reviews.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4754-0
00:33:17.082 --> 00:33:21.078
Of programs and external examining things
within my discipline,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4754-1
00:33:21.078 --> 00:33:23.202
but also outside of my discipline.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4792-0
00:33:23.242 --> 00:33:28.763
So I had a quick look down my CV to see
some of the some of the things that are
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4792-1
00:33:28.763 --> 00:33:34.353
not within sport and health and through
the UCB 糖心TV Partnership for the last
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4792-2
00:33:34.353 --> 00:33:40.012
couple of years I've been supporting with
that and one of the things in my group.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4797-0
00:33:40.012 --> 00:33:41.402
Of courses that I helped.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4809-0
00:33:42.532 --> 00:33:45.812
To liaise and and look after is culinary
arts management.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4833-0
00:33:47.922 --> 00:33:54.118
I have sat on review panel for
international relations management and I
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4833-1
00:33:54.118 --> 00:33:56.442
have chaired review panels.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4850-0
00:33:56.442 --> 00:34:02.787
So validation approval panels with
partner organization within Oman for
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4850-1
00:34:02.787 --> 00:34:07.282
Islamic finance and computing for oil and
gas, so.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4866-0
00:34:09.052 --> 00:34:13.372
Not directly relevant to the work that I
do, but always something to learn.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4870-0
00:34:13.372 --> 00:34:15.052
So how other people do things?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4914-0
00:34:15.482 --> 00:34:20.011
There's always things to take away.
Signature pedagogies from other
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4914-1
00:34:20.011 --> 00:34:24.407
disciplines and so on. So,
and I really reflect in my role now as
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4914-2
00:34:24.407 --> 00:34:28.470
Pro Dean for education,
where I'm responsible for this broad
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4914-3
00:34:28.470 --> 00:34:33.133
portfolio within our school,
but also the work that I do then linking
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4914-4
00:34:33.133 --> 00:34:34.332
into policy pract.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4941-0
00:34:34.332 --> 00:34:39.040
Processes and things across the
university that I draw on that sort of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4941-1
00:34:39.040 --> 00:34:43.882
experience and things I learnt across
that really on a day-to-day basis.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4960-0
00:34:45.702 --> 00:34:49.782
So next one,
coaching and mentoring in sport and I
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/4960-1
00:34:49.782 --> 00:34:53.062
think the role of this is pretty obvious.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5003-0
00:34:53.062 --> 00:34:58.278
It's it's evident how that is important
in the sports environment and I if I
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5003-1
00:34:58.278 --> 00:35:03.359
think about this in in education,
I think it is equally as important and I
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5003-2
00:35:03.359 --> 00:35:08.644
think some of the most enjoyable and
rewarding work that I have done has been
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5003-3
00:35:08.644 --> 00:35:10.812
in this space supporting others.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5013-0
00:35:11.892 --> 00:35:15.692
And I consider within this that this is
obviously.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5019-0
00:35:15.842 --> 00:35:17.362
The coaching and the mentoring and.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5026-0
00:35:17.432 --> 00:35:21.632
And the sort of management of others,
but also.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5044-0
00:35:22.622 --> 00:35:25.916
How we can encourage others to take up
opportunities,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5044-1
00:35:25.916 --> 00:35:29.942
how we can push opportunities in the
direction of certain people.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5081-0
00:35:31.352 --> 00:35:36.440
And I've been very lucky over my career
to have had support from lots of people
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5081-1
00:35:36.440 --> 00:35:39.365
and lots of people send opportunities my
way.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5081-2
00:35:39.365 --> 00:35:44.072
So I try to also pass on that and be
generous with my support for others.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5090-0
00:35:45.952 --> 00:35:49.392
So lots and lots of people have supported
me and I'm just going to pop up.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5092-0
00:35:51.232 --> 00:35:51.552
Can't thank.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5135-0
00:35:51.902 --> 00:35:57.465
Everybody, unfortunately, there's too,
too many people that that have helped me
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5135-1
00:35:57.465 --> 00:36:01.290
along the way.
But I do just want to recognise some of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5135-2
00:36:01.290 --> 00:36:06.923
the the faces here on the board who over
the years have acted perhaps as a coach
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5135-3
00:36:06.923 --> 00:36:10.192
or a mentor, might be formal,
might be inform.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5150-0
00:36:11.702 --> 00:36:16.945
People who have made an impact on me,
people who I've learned really important
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5150-1
00:36:16.945 --> 00:36:17.742
things from.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5158-0
00:36:18.512 --> 00:36:20.992
And people that have given me an
opportunity.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5196-0
00:36:21.382 --> 00:36:26.992
And really encouraged me and I do want to
say a special thank you to Professor
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5196-1
00:36:26.992 --> 00:36:32.815
Lesley Roberts for really supporting me
over the last four to five years and most
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5196-2
00:36:32.815 --> 00:36:38.142
especially in the last year since you
handed over protein education to me.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5198-0
00:36:38.302 --> 00:36:39.542
So thank you very much.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5206-0
00:36:47.712 --> 00:36:50.552
And you know,
we are in the month of March where?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5208-0
00:36:52.232 --> 00:36:52.552
Which of course.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5242-0
00:36:52.782 --> 00:36:56.015
Course,
we've just celebrated International
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5242-1
00:36:56.015 --> 00:37:01.747
Women's Day and I'm really struck by the
number of women up on that up on the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5242-2
00:37:01.747 --> 00:37:05.568
board there.
But also thanks to very importantly to
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5242-3
00:37:05.568 --> 00:37:09.022
those men that support women in their
careers.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5258-0
00:37:10.632 --> 00:37:14.744
So lastly,
I want to just say something about the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5258-1
00:37:14.744 --> 00:37:16.472
team behind the team.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5273-0
00:37:16.912 --> 00:37:20.655
So another important construct in sport.
So we've got the team,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5273-1
00:37:20.655 --> 00:37:23.872
but there's a much bigger group of people
around them.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5315-0
00:37:24.142 --> 00:37:29.482
That are supporting you know what the
what the team do and how they can become
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5315-1
00:37:29.482 --> 00:37:34.552
really excellent and you know we've
touched on the medical team earlier in
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5315-2
00:37:34.552 --> 00:37:37.662
the talk,
but we have strengthening auditing,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5315-3
00:37:37.662 --> 00:37:42.664
coaches, psychology, sport, science,
nutrition and of course this team is
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5315-4
00:37:42.664 --> 00:37:44.152
really, really import.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5330-0
00:37:44.662 --> 00:37:49.342
And I think this team behind the team is
really important in education as well.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5343-0
00:37:50.072 --> 00:37:54.039
I've mentioned a couple of times during
my talk today about our excellent
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5343-1
00:37:54.039 --> 00:37:55.112
professional sports.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5370-0
00:37:55.542 --> 00:38:00.289
Services staff who are really,
really important in in our education
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5370-1
00:38:00.289 --> 00:38:03.780
context,
but I want to say something a little bit
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5370-2
00:38:03.780 --> 00:38:07.062
more about the role of things like we're
here.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5381-0
00:38:07.062 --> 00:38:10.462
So the 糖心TV International Higher
Education Academy.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5393-0
00:38:10.862 --> 00:38:14.694
So I was lucky to have her.
We here fellowship for three years and
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5393-1
00:38:14.694 --> 00:38:16.582
this was a brilliant opportunity.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5408-0
00:38:17.912 --> 00:38:22.392
And this was really an opportunity to
sort of develop education scholarship.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5410-0
00:38:24.072 --> 00:38:24.272
Network.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5416-0
00:38:24.382 --> 00:38:26.222
Back with others across the institution.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5447-0
00:38:27.712 --> 00:38:30.452
And it's,
I think really very supportive for people
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5447-1
00:38:30.452 --> 00:38:34.616
in teaching focused careers and people
who are not teaching focused but really
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5447-2
00:38:34.616 --> 00:38:37.832
want to make education an important part
of of what they do.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5449-0
00:38:39.552 --> 00:38:39.672
And.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5485-0
00:38:41.432 --> 00:38:45.873
I was part of the teaching,
recognition and reward learning circle,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5485-1
00:38:45.873 --> 00:38:51.295
and here's my good colleague Liz Blagrove
from psychology and Liz and I Co chaired
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5485-2
00:38:51.295 --> 00:38:53.712
the teaching, recognition and reward.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5496-0
00:38:53.862 --> 00:38:56.702
Group for a year during COVID,
which was interesting.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5505-0
00:38:56.702 --> 00:38:58.522
We didn't meet properly until the end of
it,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5505-1
00:38:58.522 --> 00:39:00.182
where we finally got to go out for lunch.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5507-0
00:39:02.392 --> 00:39:02.512
But.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5519-0
00:39:04.072 --> 00:39:08.472
We we were working around how we keep
that conversation going.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5547-0
00:39:09.992 --> 00:39:15.054
In a research intensive organization
about the visibility and the importance
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5547-1
00:39:15.054 --> 00:39:19.130
of people on teaching,
you know who are on the teaching track
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5547-2
00:39:19.130 --> 00:39:21.432
and doing teaching focused careers.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5549-0
00:39:21.632 --> 00:39:23.672
So we were able to.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5566-0
00:39:24.182 --> 00:39:30.694
Enhance some of the support for people
who were applying for promotion on the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5566-1
00:39:30.694 --> 00:39:32.782
teaching focused pathway.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5610-0
00:39:32.822 --> 00:39:38.492
We were involved in the conversations and
influencing some of the changes around
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5610-1
00:39:38.492 --> 00:39:43.812
titles for senior teaching fellow over to
assistant professor and we had we
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5610-2
00:39:43.812 --> 00:39:49.342
organised an event across university
event which was everyday excellence in an
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5610-3
00:39:49.342 --> 00:39:53.822
extraordinary year and this was about
celebrating the everyday.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5627-0
00:39:54.062 --> 00:39:59.150
Excellence.
All of the really good stuff that happens
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5627-1
00:39:59.150 --> 00:40:02.542
but is not necessarily very visible.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5630-0
00:40:02.542 --> 00:40:04.582
But it's actually what makes.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5635-0
00:40:04.982 --> 00:40:08.342
It's really what makes excellent
education.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5652-0
00:40:09.832 --> 00:40:14.125
So it was really great to be able to kind
of be able to shine a bit of a light on
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5652-1
00:40:14.125 --> 00:40:15.592
that because it's often the.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5670-0
00:40:18.352 --> 00:40:22.438
The sort of higher profile things that
people are interested in hearing about.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5670-1
00:40:22.438 --> 00:40:24.352
But if we don't get the basics right.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5708-0
00:40:24.702 --> 00:40:28.093
And do that really well on a day-to-day
basis,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5708-1
00:40:28.093 --> 00:40:34.011
then you know that's what I think makes a
really good education for our students.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5708-2
00:40:34.011 --> 00:40:38.342
And I'm now involved in the professors in
practice network.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5724-0
00:40:38.342 --> 00:40:42.035
So this is a group of teaching focused
professors,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5724-1
00:40:42.035 --> 00:40:46.742
and we're really trying to sort of keep
that work going forward.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5737-0
00:40:46.742 --> 00:40:49.556
So once you reach teaching focused
Professor,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5737-1
00:40:49.556 --> 00:40:51.942
what does the ongoing career look like?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5744-0
00:40:52.712 --> 00:40:54.872
Where are the opportunities and how can
we?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5756-0
00:40:55.302 --> 00:40:58.983
You know,
really ensure that the expertise and
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5756-1
00:40:58.983 --> 00:41:00.942
experience that we bring.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5762-0
00:41:02.432 --> 00:41:05.872
Is,
you know has got that voice at 糖心TV?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5791-0
00:41:07.592 --> 00:41:13.159
So it's great to have been a part of that
and I would really encourage anybody who
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5791-1
00:41:13.159 --> 00:41:16.782
is, you know,
here and involved in teaching to to get
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5791-2
00:41:16.782 --> 00:41:18.392
involved in, we're here.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5801-0
00:41:21.392 --> 00:41:25.032
The other important group of people,
I think in the team.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5814-0
00:41:25.342 --> 00:41:29.854
Behind the team is that we all,
regardless of what we do,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5814-1
00:41:29.854 --> 00:41:32.422
I think need our own cheer squad.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5832-0
00:41:34.152 --> 00:41:39.490
And I want to give my own personal thanks
to the people on the front row here.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5832-1
00:41:39.490 --> 00:41:41.112
My team behind the team.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5843-0
00:41:42.792 --> 00:41:45.952
For all of the support patients and
encouragement over the years.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5850-0
00:41:47.742 --> 00:41:50.582
So I'm going to draw things to a close.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5862-0
00:41:52.032 --> 00:41:55.792
But as I reflect on everything that I've
talked about today.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5878-0
00:41:57.432 --> 00:42:02.280
I think I guess I want to say that
academia can sometimes feel like a
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5878-1
00:42:02.280 --> 00:42:03.112
competition.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5882-0
00:42:04.832 --> 00:42:05.912
But I think so.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5887-0
00:42:05.912 --> 00:42:07.952
I think there's a lot to learn from sport.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5905-0
00:42:09.792 --> 00:42:13.069
So for me, well,
swimming is an individual sport,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5905-1
00:42:13.069 --> 00:42:17.592
but for me the bit that I love the best
was being on the relay team.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5923-0
00:42:17.902 --> 00:42:22.626
And there's my my fantastic relay team
and we're still good friends.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5923-1
00:42:22.626 --> 00:42:25.502
Now we're twenty however many years later.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5959-0
00:42:26.992 --> 00:42:32.681
Because this was where we got to really
do stuff together and we started with
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5959-1
00:42:32.681 --> 00:42:38.006
Pele and we can finish with Pele,
who also was very much recognising the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5959-2
00:42:38.006 --> 00:42:41.872
importance and the value of the team in
what he did.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5971-0
00:42:43.712 --> 00:42:48.032
So I really believe and everything I hope
that I've brought in out of my talk today.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5991-0
00:42:49.382 --> 00:42:52.889
Is that learning,
teaching and education is,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5991-1
00:42:52.889 --> 00:42:56.865
for me at least,
the very best of the team sports,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5991-2
00:42:56.865 --> 00:42:58.502
so I'll finish there.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/5993-0
00:42:58.582 --> 00:42:59.782
Thank you very much.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6001-0
00:43:15.722 --> 00:43:16.522
So thank you, Lucy.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6004-0
00:43:16.522 --> 00:43:18.562
You know, with Ashley Conrad now.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6016-0
00:43:20.112 --> 00:43:23.312
That was a fascinating insight into your
journey.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6047-0
00:43:23.312 --> 00:43:27.550
You know, I'm really appreciative of you,
you know, sharing that with with us,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6047-1
00:43:27.550 --> 00:43:31.734
we've got a few minutes for questions and
I know we've got quite a few people
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6047-2
00:43:31.734 --> 00:43:34.363
online.
And so I'll look over to the the team to
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6047-3
00:43:34.363 --> 00:43:36.992
let me know if any questions are coming
through.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6059-0
00:43:36.992 --> 00:43:39.775
There,
but are there any questions from people
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6059-1
00:43:39.775 --> 00:43:40.072
here?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6068-0
00:43:40.072 --> 00:43:44.672
We've got a microphone which will use the
microphone so the people online can also.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6070-0
00:43:45.552 --> 00:43:45.792
Hear.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6074-0
00:43:46.102 --> 00:43:46.942
Thanks Lucy.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6077-0
00:43:46.982 --> 00:43:48.582
Excellent, as expected.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6083-0
00:43:48.582 --> 00:43:51.302
Did you go in the cold chamber? I did.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6086-0
00:43:51.662 --> 00:43:52.382
Yeah, I did.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6091-0
00:43:52.582 --> 00:43:53.902
How was it OK.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6099-0
00:43:53.902 --> 00:43:59.382
So cold obviously,
but have you ever been in an ice bath?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6103-0
00:43:59.382 --> 00:44:00.782
No. OK.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6120-0
00:44:01.022 --> 00:44:05.760
Way not as bad as an ice bath,
I think because of obviously conductivity
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6120-1
00:44:05.760 --> 00:44:08.422
of air compared to conductivity of water.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6123-0
00:44:08.422 --> 00:44:09.702
So ice bath, I don't know.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6127-0
00:44:09.902 --> 00:44:11.982
David, would that be about 8掳 or?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6133-0
00:44:12.832 --> 00:44:14.552
Yeah, 8-9 degrees or something.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6149-0
00:44:15.342 --> 00:44:19.847
But that's like pain.
Whereas the the Chamber was was
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6149-1
00:44:19.847 --> 00:44:21.182
definitely cold.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6151-0
00:44:21.182 --> 00:44:22.342
I was ready to get out.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6156-0
00:44:24.072 --> 00:44:25.672
But yeah, an interesting experience.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6158-0
00:44:29.332 --> 00:44:30.092
Lesley.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6174-0
00:44:32.072 --> 00:44:37.638
Based on your experience,
would you be advising the Welsh rugby
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6174-1
00:44:37.638 --> 00:44:39.552
team to give up rugby?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6187-0
00:44:41.912 --> 00:44:48.032
It's definitely an occupational hazard to
to get injured. Absolutely, yeah.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6229-0
00:44:53.382 --> 00:44:57.931
So while people are thinking of other
questions, so you've described, you know,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6229-1
00:44:57.931 --> 00:45:01.570
the the journey there.
If you have the opportunity to step back
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6229-2
00:45:01.570 --> 00:45:05.949
at some point into the the journey and
and look at any advice that you might
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6229-3
00:45:05.949 --> 00:45:08.622
have,
you know what or advice that you'd give?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6241-0
00:45:08.622 --> 00:45:12.342
To your former self and I guess you know
through that.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6246-0
00:45:12.382 --> 00:45:15.102
What other people you know might take
forwards?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6250-0
00:45:15.142 --> 00:45:17.662
Big question, Revan, OK.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6261-0
00:45:18.392 --> 00:45:21.912
You can't say I wouldn't accept the Pro
Dean education without the table.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6263-0
00:45:21.982 --> 00:45:22.342
Thank you.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6265-0
00:45:22.572 --> 00:45:22.892
Thank you.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6268-0
00:45:25.062 --> 00:45:25.222
OK.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6305-0
00:45:25.222 --> 00:45:28.441
I mean,
I think the advice that I would give
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6305-1
00:45:28.441 --> 00:45:34.023
myself and I think I've been given over
the years and I know that many of the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6305-2
00:45:34.023 --> 00:45:38.960
women in the room will recognise this,
but really is about, I guess,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6305-3
00:45:38.960 --> 00:45:43.182
that imposter syndrome and that thing of
knowing that you.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6323-0
00:45:43.182 --> 00:45:46.305
Probably do actually have all of the
things that you need,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6323-1
00:45:46.305 --> 00:45:50.222
and it's just about that confidence.
I think to to bring that forward so.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6331-0
00:45:51.222 --> 00:45:53.042
Yeah,
I've been lucky to be supported by people
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6331-1
00:45:53.042 --> 00:45:53.422
that have.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6333-0
00:45:53.892 --> 00:45:54.492
Try to.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6342-0
00:45:54.492 --> 00:45:57.717
Kind of keep the imposter at Bay,
and that would be my advice to others as
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6342-1
00:45:57.717 --> 00:45:57.932
well.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6346-0
00:45:59.532 --> 00:46:00.292
Thank you.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6350-0
00:46:00.332 --> 00:46:01.772
Have we got any questions online?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6353-0
00:46:03.222 --> 00:46:03.902
No questions online.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6357-0
00:46:06.452 --> 00:46:06.732
OK.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6375-0
00:46:06.732 --> 00:46:08.953
Well,
I'm sure people have questions and and
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6375-1
00:46:08.953 --> 00:46:11.372
and maybe they're not wanting to fame
that loud.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6387-0
00:46:11.372 --> 00:46:15.492
So rather than, you know,
drawing that out here, we'll wrap up.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6392-0
00:46:15.492 --> 00:46:17.652
Now we've got a very exciting.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6394-0
00:46:19.062 --> 00:46:19.262
Glass.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6399-0
00:46:20.902 --> 00:46:21.622
Gong thing to give you.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6402-0
00:46:23.542 --> 00:46:24.542
I'm great.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6410-0
00:46:26.782 --> 00:46:31.462
To recognize the fantastic. Thank you,
Gavin.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6419-0
00:46:43.552 --> 00:46:46.272
So we have had a question come in the
excitement.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6430-0
00:46:49.372 --> 00:46:52.412
Where do you see the development of
medical education learning?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6436-0
00:46:53.982 --> 00:46:54.142
OK.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6439-0
00:46:54.142 --> 00:46:54.542
Hi, Gareth.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6440-0
00:46:54.942 --> 00:46:56.142
Thank you for joining.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6446-0
00:46:56.702 --> 00:46:58.622
So where do I see it going?
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6447-0
00:46:58.622 --> 00:46:59.302
I think.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6467-0
00:47:01.262 --> 00:47:05.864
I think I touched on something earlier
around practice often being ahead of the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6467-1
00:47:05.864 --> 00:47:06.382
evidence.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6486-0
00:47:06.782 --> 00:47:11.564
So I think that's really,
really important in terms of what we
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6486-1
00:47:11.564 --> 00:47:17.182
really try to bring to the sort of sports
medicine education and I think.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6495-0
00:47:17.892 --> 00:47:19.212
Certainly I know, I know, I know.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6503-0
00:47:19.212 --> 00:47:24.252
Gareth is from sports therapy backgrounds
and I think in in this background.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6522-0
00:47:25.862 --> 00:47:30.091
There are fewer people who are involved
in the research side and I think so that,
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6522-1
00:47:30.091 --> 00:47:31.742
you know, bringing that forward.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6556-0
00:47:33.582 --> 00:47:35.868
I'm.
I've got no idea where things like AI and
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6556-1
00:47:35.868 --> 00:47:39.419
stuff will take us in in this field,
and I think there's lots of lots of
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6556-2
00:47:39.419 --> 00:47:42.824
exciting things ahead, I'm sure,
but I think I would focus around the
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6556-3
00:47:42.824 --> 00:47:43.262
evidence.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6562-0
00:47:46.752 --> 00:47:47.512
Great. Thank you.
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6588-0
00:47:47.512 --> 00:47:51.268
So we'll wrap up the formal bit now,
but if people want to come down and ask
23959fb8-0566-483f-86b5-4bad4bbdbf88/6588-1
00:47:51.268 --> 00:47:54.000
Lucy any questions you know,
please feel free to do so.
