Unable to get a job with Shell Oil, Shaun was forced to take a job in the Prosthetics and Orthotics department at the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, Scotland. This turned out to be an excellent position but after four years it was time for a change. For many years Shaun had considered his consumption of fish to be inadequate so a move to Norway seemed the obvious thing to do. After six great years of learning about randomised controlled trials, intervention development and international projects with the Norwegian Health Services Research Centre, Shaun moved back to the UK in January 2005 because of love. He now works at the Tayside Centre for General Practice at the University of Dundee and will probably spend his time working on websites that provide patient information and quality improvement work in primary care.  Probably.
