About Maaya Modha-Patel:

I am a practising pharmacist, a Senior Lecturer in Pharmacy Practice at the University of Sussex, and a Senior Teaching Fellow in Clinical Communication & Cultural Competence at King’s College London. 

I have been in practice working for Boots the Chemist for over 10 years, and I was awarded 'Best of the Best Pharmacist' for the Camden area in recognition of the excellent care I provide for my patients. 

I am also trained in screenwriting and playwriting, and I enjoy pursuing this area of interest in my free time. Following my MA in creative writing, I wrote, produced, and co-directed a short film called 'Tea & Coffee' which has been accepted by festivals worldwide, including the Women of the Now Festival in Chicago and the European Feedback Festival. In the UK, 'Tea & Coffee' is currently being used by The Alzheimer's Society as part of their training programme for carers, because it showcases a unique British Asian perspective on this condition. 

My role as an academic and educator is one which I am passionate about. In this capacity I am responsible for teaching areas of Pharmacy Practice and Clinical Pharmacy to students on the MPharm course at Sussex, and teaching Clinical Communication and Cultural Competence to medical students at KCL. I love supporting students with their learning and providing practical advice combined with my current experiences as a healthcare professional. 

My specialty lies in innovating teaching sessions and incorporating playful learning to support students in making stronger, more memorable connections between taught theory and real-world experiences. 

I am also trained as a Mental Health First Aider and offer students emotional support where I can. 

In addition to these roles, I am regularly invited on to BBC Radio London and BBC Asian Network to talk about my experiences as a healthcare professional, a Londoner, and a British Indian woman. I am also a Trustee on the Board of Pilot Theatre.
