Professor Nan Greenwood

About

I am an Emerita Professor (health and social care) whose research focuses mostly on informal, unpaid, often family carers. I also have a particular interest in diversity and its impact on experience, for example with health and social care services. Formally a quantitative researcher, I now mostly use mixed-methods or qualitative approaches in my work and have also published many systematic reviews on a variety of topics. I currently sit on several grant awarding panels.
