Teaching activities
Undergraduate medical education
Lynn is the link person for external undergraduate enquires.
She led the introduction of the innovative interdepartmental 5th year primary health care teaching programme to assist students in gaining skills and confidence in genital examination. Lynn previously convened the 5th year teaching programme as well as the 4th year teaching programme and continues to actively teach across all three years of the ALM programme in Primary Health Care and General Practice.
Recognising that teaching is a rich area for research, Lynn has been involved in several education research projects. Components of her teaching that have resulted in research publications are consultation skills, chronic care management, palliative care and most recently the genital examination teaching programme. Ongoing educational development and research is in the area of oral health. At an Otago Medical School level she is the UOWHOD on the Medical Curriculum Committee (MCC) and part of the Palliative and End of Life Care (PEOLC) oversight group. She is also involved with faculty assessments across the clinical schools.
Postgraduate education

She is involved with supervision of masters' and PhD students, as well as regularly supervising summer student projects.
Lynn assists the Royal NZ College of GPs with teaching as well assessment of the GPEP Registrar training programme.
Research interests
Lynn has a range of research interests including medical education, quality in primary care and particularly health services research.
Current projects involve primary care prescribing, oral health in primary medical care, and understanding the primary care perspective in the roll-out of HPV testing as a cervical screening test.
