Chair
Dr Jag Ahluwalia
Chairman
Jag assumed the role of Chair of Royal Papworth Hospital in February 2024, following the retirement of Professor John Wallwork. He had previously been a non-executive director since November 2019. Jag received his undergraduate training in medicine at Cambridge and London, qualifying in 1986. He received his postgraduate training in general practice and then in paediatrics and neonatology in the East of England and in Melbourne. Jag was appointed as a consultant neonatologist at Cambridge in 1996 where he was director of the neonatal service for many years as well as a practising clinician. Jag’s leadership and management experience includes nearly 10 years as the Executive Medical Director at Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (CUH). His wide-ranging portfolio as Medical Director included professional medical governance and leadership for more than 1,400 doctors, executive lead for Research and Development, executive lead for Postgraduate Medical Education, lead for patient safety and Director of Infection Prevention and Control. He was co-Chief Operating Officer for over three years and was executive lead for the award winning Electronic Patient Record system and related IT for over 2 years. He was appointed Director of Digital at Cambridge in November 2017, overseeing extensive development of the IT programmes and then nominated to be chair of the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough STP digital group. In addition to his acute hospitals roles, Jag has had many years experience of leading, supporting and managing change and leadership and strategy challenges across the wider NHS. He was an elected senior officer for his clinical professional association, the British Association of Perinatal Medicine for six years, the founding clinical lead for the Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire neonatal network, chair of Monitor’s Medical Director Advisory Group, chair of East of England Medical Directors’ Forum and vice-chair of NHS Employers’ Consultant Contract negotiating team. Jag is also a highly experienced teacher and lecturer with a two-decade track record of delivering lectures and training to heterogeneous as well as specialist audiences, nationally and internationally, across the fields of clinical practice, developing future clinical leaders, managing large-scale change, and implementing clinical IT systems. He has published more than 40 articles, including personal research. Outside of the immediate NHS, Jag currently sits as a Main Board Trustee of Macmillan Cancer Support, is a member of a number of regional forums focused on the interface between healthcare and technology and is an Honorary Fellow of the Cambridge Judge Business School, focusing on healthcare. Jag stood down as Director of Digital at CUH in April 2019 to take up a new role as Chief Clinical Officer at the Eastern Academic Health Science Network.

Graham is Director of Research (research professor) at The Healthcare Improvement Studies Institute, University of Cambridge, where he leads research on the quality and safety of healthcare services, including how to improve the experiences of patients and healthcare staff. He has over 20 years’ experience as a health services researcher, including previous appointments at the University of Leicester and the University of Nottingham prior to his move to Cambridge in 2018. He also has extensive senior leadership experience, including as head of the Department of Health Sciences at the University of Leicester, in advisory roles to the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) and other national bodies, and as a trustee of the Nuffield Trust. Graham’s research focuses on the social, organisational and professional dimensions of healthcare system change – including, for example, how patients and the public can be involved in planning and making changes to services, and the changing role of the healthcare professions in delivering services and leading improvement. Current and recent studies led by Graham include leading a national service evaluation team funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR), a study of the introduction and development of new specialist roles to lead improvements in patient safety, and research looking at how best to ensure that concerns, issues and ideas identified by NHS staff are heard and acted on by the organisations that employ them. Graham has a degree in Geography from Mansfield College, Oxford, and a Master’s in Society and Space from the University of Bristol. His PhD, from the University of Nottingham, focused on the involvement of patients and the public in the introduction of new cancer genetics services around England. He is a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences. Graham is an eternally optimistic Derby County football fan, and a guitarist who 'doesn’t play as much as I wish I did'.
