| Results and Impact | I organised and lead a one-day workshop consisting of a multidisciplinary audience: midwives, psychologists, psychiatrists, sociologists, screening co-ordinators, and individuals working in public health, genetics, healthcare, obstetrics and gynaecology, and policy makers and implementers. The workshop was designed to disseminate the study findings directly to relevant policy makers and practitioners, and to identify the next generation of research questions in this area. After the workshop, the Director of the National Screening Committee invited me to submit a proposal for systematic review on Informed Choice in antenatal Screening. |
