Speaker: Dr. Sara Macdonald
Professor, Director of Innovation, Engagement and Enterprise (General Practice & Primary Care), University of Glasgow
Knowledge hierarchies underpin research. Biomedical research and what counts as knowledge has been contested over time and across disciplines. As a social scientist operating in a largely biomedical context, Dr. Macdonald has witnessed an evolution in attitudes towards and value attached to lay knowledge. Drawing on examples from her own research, she will share reflections on this transformation and ask where next for lay knowledge.
