Biography

I am a Registered Nurse, Lecturer in Nursing, and PhD graduand. I have a broad range of clinical experience in acute and palliative care nursing in regional and metropolitan settings and the UK. For 15 years I worked in the Haematology/Bone-marrow Transplant Unit providing specialised care to patients receiving radiation therapy and chemotherapy. I have worked as a Senior Research Assistant collaborating with members of the research team in the development of projects such as systematic reviews, laboratory studies and clinical trials.
