Dr Rebecca Walmsley
MBChB Programme Director
Research areas
I graduated in Medicine from Nottingham in 2002, progressing to GP training on the Oxford VTS. I subsequently developed an academic GP career, with roles at Leeds, then Dundee Universities, completing my Masters in Medical Education with Dundee. I remain clinically active as a GP in Fife.
I was appointed as Clinical Lead at St Andrews in 2016, and as BSc Course Director in 2020, with promotion to Senior Lecturer that year.
My main areas of interest are undergraduate medical education, specifically around primary care and promoting General Practice as a positive career destination.
