In September 2011 Clare took on the role of BM(EU) programme leader. This was a new initiative to develop an undergraduate medical degree in collaboration with a German health care provider in Kassel, Germany. European students who are bilingual in German and English complete the first two years in Southampton and the remaining three (mainly clinical years) in Kassel. The first cohort of BM(EU) students graduated in 2018 and have guaranteed foundation year 1 jobs in Kassel.
Clare is chair of Student Progress Committee and leads for the Faculty on Fitness to Practice, Special Considerations and Appeals.
Clare is a GP who moved to Southampton in 2004 having previously worked at Edinburgh University as a Clinical Lecturer. She has worked in Tanazania and New Zealand and has a passionate interest in Global health. Alongside her University role she works as a GP in Southampton.
