This week’s guest is Dr Cheryl McGeachan. Cheryl is a lecturer in Human Geography at the University of Glasgow with whom we have worked on several occasions. Her research interests include criminal-medical histories and geography, and she recently undertook a research project funded by the Carnegie Trust looking into police surgery in 19th century Scotland. We worked with her on this project to look into the career of Sir William Macewen. We chat about her ongoing research relationship with RD Laing, living in Glasgow, and who ultimately was the best police surgeon in Scotland.
