Anne Lanceley - Retirement Celebration

Anne trained as a nurse at St. Bartholomew’s Hospital London and has held innovative senior clinical nurse posts including commissioning the first teenage cancer unit in the UK whilst Clinical Senior Nurse for Oncology at the Middlesex Hospital.  After completing her PhD at Kings College London, Anne was a Senior Lecturer at the Institute of Cancer Research, London where she set up new interdisciplinary MSC programmes in Cancer Care, Palliative Care and Cancer Genetics.

As a clinical nurse academic Anne was invited to join UCL in 2004 at the inception of the Institute for Women’s Health.  Her research and education focus is the patient experience dimension of developments in the field of women’s cancers in the era of genomic medicine. In 2008 she established the Patient Care Research Group to improve quality of life and reduce suffering resulting from cancer.  To maximize the impact of this work, Anne has made novel collaborations between fields where there is no natural affiliation or connection such as that between heritage studies and cancer care.

Anne has lead programmes of work in the patient experience of prevention and early detection approaches in women’s cancer, the development and psychometric testing of quality of life instruments for use in cancer clinical trials, and novel intervention trials including  RCTs of individualised versus conventional medical follow up of women after primary treatment for ovarian cancer and a healthy eating and physical activity programme to improve quality of life after treatment for endometrial cancer. Anne has a life-long interest in language and communication in health care and following her PhD which explored emotion-talk between cancer patients and nurses, patient health professional communication has been a major strand in her work.
