I serve on national and international committees in the field, am co-author of national and international guidelines and have contributed to the faculty and organisation of many national and international symposia and conferences. I maintain a continuing commitment to undergraduate curriculum development, postgraduate training and external examining in basic biomedical science, clinical science and clinical practice.
