SUMMARY:Lunch & Learn May 2026
DESCRIPTION:Join the Implementation Café and guest speaker Dr Sanne Peters for the May Lunch & Learn session on Implementation Science. \n  \nAbout Dr Sanne Peters \nDr. Sanne Peters is a Senior Research Fellow in Implementation Science. She started her research career in Melbourne\, at the Royal Children’s Hospital Education Institute in 2013. It was there that she was first able to pursue her interest in the health and education nexus. Sanne’s PhD research explored strategies aimed at improving knowledge translation in the training of general practitioners at the University of Leuven\, in Belgium. During her postdoctoral work in Belgium and as Chair of the Implementation Working Group of the Guidelines International Network\, Sanne has been facilitating behaviour change processes that aim to increase the uptake of evidence-based clinical guidelines into practice. At the University of Melbourne\, Sanne works on multiple topics ranging from paediatric oncofertility to infection prevention and control in residential aged care facilities. Her work aims to address the barriers that slow or halt the uptake of proven health interventions and to identify the most effective ways to support improvements in healthcare practice to enhance patient outcomes.

SUMMARY:[WEBINAR] Prioritising Women's Health and Careers in COVID Recovery and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:The Australian Health Research Alliance (AHRA) invites you to a webinar on Prioritising Women’s Health and Careers in COVID Recovery and Beyond. \nA misalignment between the career trajectory of men and women continues to leave women under-represented in leadership positions in both healthcare and academia. COVID-19 has amplified and heightened these existing inequalities. Taking on a greater proportion of unpaid care\, and an increase in job losses in the hardest-hit sectors are just some of the barriers women now face. As we move beyond the pandemic\, a national collaborative evidence-based approach is vital to tackle inequity and optimise women’s health\, careers\, and well-being. \nThis event will serve as the launch for two collaborative initiatives: \n\nAdvancing Women in Healthcare Leadership (AWHL)\nWomen’s Health Research Translation and Impact Network (WHRTN)\n\nThese national initiatives will drive progress on equality\, support opportunities\, and prioritise women. Hear from keynote speakers\, Parliamentary Friends of Health and Medical Research Co-Chair\, Dr Katie Allen MP\, Young Australian of the Year 2021\, Isobel Marshall\, and WHRTN Chair\, Indigenous Women’s Health\, Prof Aunty Kerrie Doyle. \nProf Helena Teede\, lead on these initiatives\, will outline priorities for women’s health\, research\, and careers\, and a Q&A panel\, of interdisciplinary experts\, will discuss opportunities for building a better and healthier future for women in Australia. \nAWHL is a partnership project funded by the National Health and Medical Research Council and contributions from its 11 healthcare sector partners. WHRTN is funded by the Medical Research Future Fund. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:The AICC(WA) Annual Healthcare Event 2021
DESCRIPTION:“So you think you know what’s good for you?” by Dr Norman Swan \n“Let’s get past COVID – what you can stop worrying about with your health and how to emulate the second longest lived people in the world – and they’re Australian!” \nDr Swan (Physician\, Journalist\, Author and ABC Radio National Broadcaster) will explore common myths about health: do we really need 7-8 hours sleep? What the raw food movement is missing out on – and it really matters\, what is the secret sauce in the Mediterranean diet? And there is a needless moral panic about screens? That and a lot more. \nDr Swan’s address to the AICC(WA)’s Annual Healthcare event is a must for all. Suitable for a wide range of audiences\, young and old\, all work sectors\, health professionals and families – don’t miss this rare entertaining and informative presentation delivered in Norman’s trademark clarity and wit.
