When you ask how medical research is undertaken, most people will likely answer that it’s undertaken in a laboratory or using data to identify what will happen in a scenario. This is quantitative research. However, qualitative research is a method which can help medical researchers understand how or why certain things happen. 

Join Dr Kim Walker from the University of Aberdeen’s Centre for Healthcare Education Research and Innovation as she discusses the role qualitative research can play in medical research, and provides an overview of her recent research which is assessing the interventions required to support doctors’ mental health and resilience during the COVID-19 crisis.
