Biography
Dr Farrow is an academic experienced in musculoskeletal research and lecturing, following the completion of a PhD in Medicine at the University of Leeds where he conducted research into the use of quantitative MRI in patients with rheumatic disease.
Dr Farrow is a Senior Fellow of the HEA (SFHEA) and has taught within the UK, America, and Asia. He has taught a range of students, including Clinical Sciences, Pharmacy, Medicine, and Physiotherapy. In particular, Dr Farrow has experience in teaching human physiology and anatomy through dissection.
Throughout his academic career, Dr Farrow encourages student engagement and utilises innovative pedagogical approaches within his teaching from first-year students to supervising PhD candidates.
