University of Queensland · 92 Compass Score
About this scholarship
Supervisor: Professor Claire Jackson Associate supervisor: Dr Caroline Nicholson The AHA aims to prevent, delay or reverse frailty in the community. Utilising a multidisciplinary, integrated, digitally supported, regional consortium, the AHA will directly address identified community priorities. This project will build upon the established work of the research and service delivery partners in providing evidence-based, well-evaluated innovations in governance and workforce re-design for vulnerable populations in the rural and remote Western Queensland region. Opportunities exist for a PhD or MPhil student to work alongside the research team to evaluate the implementation of AHA in Western Queensland. Supervisors will work with candidates to develop a PhD project that is in line with the candidate's research interests (e.g. healthy ageing, culturally appropriate screening and frailty management, implementation science, economic evaluations or digital health services) and fits within the scope of the grant activities. Applications must have a sound understanding of the Australian healthcare system. A clinical background is desirable.
