"Claire's AI in Qualitative Research Masterclass helped clarify how AI can be used in qualitative research in ways that are both appropriate and methodologically defensible. Highly recommend to my PhD students, ECRs, and colleagues."
"The Research Circle helped me cut through feeling overwhelmed and focus on what actually matters in my PhD. It's completely changed my momentum."
"What sets this masterclass apart is Claire's ability to balance theory with practical application — unlike other training that can leave you more confused."
