Mr Daniel Rodger

I joined LSBU in 2016, where I am a Senior Lecturer in Operating department practice at the Institute of Health and Social Care. I originally studied a DipHE in Operating department practice; I subsequently completed a top-up degree in the Sociology of Religion and History and then an MA in Contemporary Ethics. My edited book the Fundamentals of Operating Department Practice (2nd edition) was published in 2022 by Cambridge University Press.

My primary research interests have been in areas related to bioethics, education, perioperative care, and artificial intelligence. More recently I have been exploring novel ways to address the shortage of organs for transplant, such as xenotransplantation and financially compensating living kidney donors. I'm currently studying for a PhD in Psychology at Birkbeck, University of London where I am being supervised by Jonathan A Smith. My research explores how different kinds of lived experience can affect how people make sense of novel biotechnologies.
