Nadeem Qureshi

2004-05 Harkness Fellow Primary care physician Clinical associate director in primary care Honorary consultant in primary care development University of Nottingham Director Clinical Genetics in Primary Care program Nottingham Primary Care Research Partnership

Harkness Project Title: Medicine in the 21st Century: Anticipating and Preventing Inequalities in Genetic Health Care Provision for Vulnerable Minority Populations

Mentor: Muin Khoury, M.D.

Placement: Center for Disease Control and Prevention

Biography at time of Harkness Fellowship: Nadeem Qureshi is a primary care physician and clinical associate director in primary care and honorary consultant in primary care development at the University of Nottingham. He is also director of the Clinical Genetics in Primary Care program at the NHS R&D funded Nottingham Primary Care Research Partnership and principal in general practice at The Surgery, Off Revelstoke Way, Rise Park, Nottingham. His research interests include primary care genetics and genetic health care policy. Qureshi holds a medical degree from University College London Medical School and a M.Sc. in health service research and technology assessment from the School of Health and Related Services at the University of Sheffield.

 

 

Project: Qureshi explored the intersection of preventive genetic health care and disparities among underserved minority communities.  In particular, he explored how health beliefs may enhance or hinder preventive genetic care among these communities, physician competencies in providing preventive genetic services to these populations, and the impact of doctors who advise patients of familial risk.  He evaluated physician competencies through interviews with primary care providers in areas with large proportions of minority populations.  He also analyzed data from two surveys (Myriad; HealthStyles 2004) to explore patients’ health beliefs and community support networks.
