Senior Research Fellow in the Centre for Medicine Use and Safety , Monash University
I am a Senior Research Fellow with the Centre for Medicine Use and Safety. I am currently funded by an NHMRC Investigator Grant (EL2: 2021-2025). I am also a qualified pharmacist with experience working as a clinical pharmacist in a large tertiary teaching hospital. I completed my PhD at the University of South Australia in 2014 and was awarded the medal from the School of Pharmacy and Medical Sciences for my thesis work. Following this I was a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Sydney with the NHMRC Cognitive Decline Partnership Centre. I also spent two months as a visiting researcher at the Brocher Foundation (Geneva, Switzerland) in 2014. I previously held an NHMRC-ARC Dementia Research Development Fellowship. The first two years of this fellowship were undertaken in Canada with the University of Sydney and the Department of Medicine at Dalhousie University, with the final two years completed at University of South Australia.
