Join us for an enlightening session with Jude Field and Jenny Cunningham, esteemed midwives and research advisors from the Royal College of Midwives (RCM). Together, we shed light on the RCM's phenomenal efforts to uplift midwifery research and practice. Learn about their recently unveiled treasure-trove, a repository of midwifery PhD theses, and an impending project that aims to identify key research areas in midwifery, offering insights from clinical work, education, and global perspectives. We  highlight the essence of teamwork and consensus in determining research priorities. This discussion underscores the necessity of including midwives, student midwives, maternity support workers, and service user organizations in the process, creating a fertile environment for shared learning. Lastly, we spotlight the crucial role of research in midwifery with Helena, a third year student midwife. Helena delves into her dissertation on factors contributing to women's psychological birth trauma, emphasizing the impact of care provider interaction. This conversation reinforces the critical role of research and the need for more midwives in education and research roles. Join us in this enlightening journey. The conversation is far from over, so feel free to reach out to the RCM's research email for an extended discussion.
