PUBLICATIONS These published works have been authored by SOPH staff and associated researchers including post-doctoral fellows. The work of SOPH Honorary and Extraordinary Professors is included only where the publication is undertaken in relation to the School.
From theses to articles: Publishing from the Master and doctoral programmes Eight MPH graduates have converted their mini-theses into articles which have been published in accredited research journals. This attests to the quality of research conducted by these Master-level students, and is a significant marker of effective research capacity development in SOPH. The burgeoning doctoral programme gives opportunities for early engagement in research through completing the PhD by publications or publishing research articles following completion of the PhD by monograph. In 2019 and 2020, 28 PhD students/graduates in Public Health produced 44 peer-reviewed publications in accredited health research journals. These are included in the publications list on these page – all student publications being marked with an *.
