SHE Research

'Excellent healthcare requires evidence-informed models for the education of future and current healthcare professionals. Through research, education, and innovation, SHE works towards a world in which all healthcare professionals are well educated and in the best position to contribute to high quality care'. - Pim Teunissen, Research Director and Anique de Bruin, Vice-Director of SHE.

Our research programme

The essence of SHE’s Research Program 2024-2030 is encapsulated in the acronym H-P-E: 

  • Healthcare environments that foster learning
  • Professionals that are sustainably competent
  • Education that is designed for context

 

Aligned with SHE’s vision and mission, and building on our robust history of world-leading research in health professions education, the H-P-E Research Program is the result of a collaborative process with a variety of stakeholders. SHE’s Research Program 2024-2030 provides a succinct description of what we consider to be the main aims for the future of health professions education. In pursuit of these objectives, our focus lies in integrating scientific insights from diverse research themes and disciplines. We position our Research Program as a framework for research, collaborations, and policy decisions. The research aims are intended to inspire (new) connections between people, ideas, and investments, as well as to unearth contradictions in perspectives and link the science and practice of HPE together. We invite you to join us in contributing through science to the ongoing enhancement of health professions education.
