Recently, Health Prospect: Journal of Public Health published our article on ‘PhD supervision in Public Health’ [1]. The lead author is Dr. Pramod Regmi, with co-authors Prof. Padam Simkhada (FHSS Visiting Faculty) from the University of Huddersfield and Dr. Amudha Poobalan from the University of Aberdeen. The paper has a strong Aberdeen connection, the fifth oldest university in the UK. Three of us (Poobalan, van Teijlingen & Simkhada) use to work in the Department of Public Health at the University of Aberdeen (one still does), and three of us (Poobalan, Regmi & van Teijlingen) have a PhD from Aberdeen.
