Neale Marlow

As Lecturer in Clinical Medicine, I oversee clinical training provided by the college, maintain our distinguished portfolio of Clinical Specialist Advisors and teach the surgical half of the undergraduate curriculum. I have delivered educational programmes for national, regional and local bodies including the General Medical Council, the Healthcare Safety Investigation Branch and the Royal College of Surgeons. In 2020, I was honoured to receive the ‘Surgical Tutor of the Year’ award, as voted for by medical students at the University of Oxford.

My primary research interests focus on cultivating safety and efficiency in surgery. Through studying teamwork, human factors, quality improvement science and systems analysis, I hope to design and evaluate interventions to improve outcomes for surgical patients, particularly those receiving emergency care. In pursuit of this, I have published in fields ranging from major trauma to machine learning and on surgery in the COVID-19 era.
