Rajna Ogrin
Early in her career as a clinical podiatrist, Rajna identified gaps in clinical practice and patient care leading her to embark on a research career to prevent foot problems in people with diabetes. Her research has evolved, recognizing the need to consider individuals holistic wellbeing and the crucial role of implementation, including the need to actively engage all stakeholders in the journey. She currently works as a Senior Research Fellow at Bolton Clarke Research Institute and her research aims to optimise health and wellbeing through co-design and community based, person-centred collaborative care, translating evidence into practice, focusing on older people.
