About Justin Jagosh:

I am the Director for the Centre for Advancement in Realist Evaluation and Synthesis (CARES) and Visiting Professor at the University of the West of England. Previously I served at the University of Liverpool as Senior Research Fellow (2013-2017) and Honorary Research Associate (2017-2021), as well as positions at the University of Surrey (2021-2022) and University of Hull (2022-2023). I have an extensive portfolio of realist methodology training workshops which are run regularly, and am involved in numerous research contracts as co-investigator or advisor in realist methodology. This included the NIHR-funded RAMESES II project to develop quality and reporting guidelines for Realist Evaluation.

Prior to 2013 I held a Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) Postdoctoral Fellowship at McGill University (Montreal) and led a large realist review and evaluation to study the impact of academic-community partnerships in Community-Based Participatory Research (see publications)

I currently reside in Vancouver, Canada and am a full-time consultant, mentor and trainer for individuals and teams using realist methodology.
