Tanya McCance DPhil, MSc, BSc (Hons), RGN Professor Tanya McCance has an international reputation in the development of person‐centred practice through the use of participatory research approaches, such as practice development and action research. She has been a registered nurse since 1990 and throughout her career has held several joint posts between higher education institutions and health and social care providers, demonstrating her commitment to the integration of practice, education and research. She has developed a programme of work through engaged scholarship and research that is underpinned by the Person‐centred Practice Framework, which is central to the impact of her research. Her most recent work focuses on the identification of a relevant and appropriate set of key performance indicators for nursing and midwifery that are indicative of person‐centred care and the development of methods that will demonstrate the unique contribution of nursing to the patient experience. She has been recognised for her research contribution by inclusion in the Nursing Times Inspirational Nurse Leaders List (September 2015), was awarded the Nurse of the Year 2017 Outstanding Achievement Award, and was listed as one of 70 influential nurses and midwives in 70 years of the NHS. Tanya’s contribution reflects her passion for nursing and her commitment to the development of person‐centred practice that will enhance the care experience for patients and their families.

Cathy Bulley PhD, MCSP, SFHEA Dr Cathy Bulley is a Reader in the School of Health Sciences at Queen Margaret University.

She is fascinated with the ways in which physiotherapy and other allied health professions enact person‐centredness; how different ways of researching interact with person‐centred principles; and with the way these concepts mesh with user‐centred product design and innovation.
