My research explores opioid dispensing patterns for people with spinal cord injuries and will present healthcare providers and policymakers with the knowledge needed to promote better health outcomes.
My research aims to integrate more cost-effective and patient-centered models of virtual care beyond the COVID-19 pandemic. I will conduct a discrete choice experiment with a large cohort of Queensland prisoners to better understand their preferences.
AusHSI-JTI PhD students Jacelle Warren, Adam Rolley and Sam Borg are researching how to better use commonly collected health data to enhance the outcomes of injury.
My PhD project explores ways to measure the cost and burden of bronchiectasis. Bronchiectasis is a rare, chronic respiratory condition that affects adults and children. Based on my previous experience, it is a neglected condition to which I’m hoping to give a bit more attention!
My mixed methods research seeks to highlight liveability factors relevant to people with disabilities living in regional areas of Australia, who are experiencing socioeconomic exclusion and place-based inequalities.
Unfortunately, in Australia, integrated care is not routinely offered to patients. Adverse outcomes among individuals with atrial fibrillation can potentially be prevented by improving access to integrated care, leading to reduced disease burden and lower costs incurred by the health system.
My PhD looks at overall access to care for our paediatric cardiac patients across the state and empowering primary care providers to help address the problem of patients' distance to the cardiac care unit in Brisbane. This also lines up with a new initiative in the cardiac unit at the Queensland Children's Hospital to establish a clinical care network for our cardiac patients across the state.
My research will consider a comparative analysis of existing international Atrial Fibrillation screening strategies, their relatability to the Australian health system, and assess the cost-effectiveness of different AF screening strategies in Australia.
My research investigates parent and clinician preferences for a neurodevelopmental model of care to improve outcomes for children with congenital heart disease (CHD) in order to improve how models of care are designed and delivered.
Implementation activities are not often costed and there aren’t many approaches to cost implementation. This can lead to inefficient use of scarce healthcare resources. My PhD aims to address this need by developing an implementation costing tool to help with estimating the true cost of implementing digital health solutions in hospitals.
