PhD Opportunity: Reducing unwarranted variation in pediatric trauma care
4 weeks ago
Join to apply for the PhD Opportunity: Reducing unwarranted variation in pediatric trauma care role at The George Institute for Global Health.
Our mission is to improve the health of millions of people worldwide.
We have an exciting opportunity for a full-time PhD candidate to undertake research on evidence-based trauma care for children and youth in New South Wales (NSW).
What the research involves- Co-develop, using Participatory Action Research, an evidence-based, sustainable intervention to address known variations in splenic injury care and their behavioural drivers.
- Test and refine this intervention, using implementation science research methods, within pediatric trauma care sites in NSW and produce an implementation strategy for its use across the trauma system.
- Develop a knowledge translation plan to facilitate application of the same to address other disparities in pediatric and youth trauma care.
The research will involve a range of mixed methods, including qualitative and quantitative elements, to generate evidence to enable the sustained change in practice required to reduce variation of care of children and youth with splenic injury across the health system.
Supervision- Primary: Dr Anna Palagyi, Program Lead – Ageing & Health Systems, The George Institute for Global Health; A/Prof Susan Adams, Pediatric Surgeon, Sydney Children's Hospital; Conjoint Associate Professor, School of Clinical Medicine, UNSW Sydney; Honorary Research Fellow, The George Institute for Global Health

- Candidates must have a strong interest in pediatric trauma care, public health and implementation science applied to health systems.
- They will be enthusiastic, well-organised, and have excellent oral and written communication skills, as evidenced by previous publications in peer-reviewed journals.
- An ability to work autonomously and to be self-directed in learning, as well as to contribute to team activities and discussions, is necessary for the successful completion of this PhD.
- Professional experience in paediatric and/or trauma care delivery, and/or other related health discipline would be an advantage.
- Prior qualitative or mixed methods research and publications experience will be well regarded.
- Candidates must hold a relevant first or second-class Honours degree or Masters degree with a substantial research component and/or be able to demonstrate equivalent research experience.
- Australian citizens, New Zealand citizens or Australian permanent residents are eligible to apply.

A Top-Up Scholarship of AUD10,000 per annum will be made available to the successful candidate, contingent on successful award of the UNSW RTP scholarship.
