John's PhD thesis is an Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis of the experiences of men who work as midwives. It is the first to explore how a marginal number of men in an otherwise mono-gendered profession make sense of their experiences. Filtered through the lens of gender, it seeks to understand how they navigate a space where they are neither wanted, needed, or deemed unproblematically acceptable to either service users or the profession as a whole. John has also carried out peer-participatory research with students from minoritized ethnicities to try and understand their experiences within the NHS.
He is a member of the Faculty's Health Sciences and Services Research Centre as well as the Diversity, Community, and Identity Special Interest Group.
John is an Honorary Research Fellow for the Centre for Healthcare and Communities at Coventry University.
He also sits as a member of the Health Education England Global Majroity Student Experience Steering Group and the NHS England Men & Diversity in Midwifery Steering Group.
