Personal profile
Research interests
I am an emergency physician and educator.
I am Professor of Emergency Medicine and Director of Simulation at the Gold Coast Health Service, and leads the Bond University Translational Simulation Collaborative. My main interests are in connecting education with patient care - through translational simulation for healthcare, and in developing high performing teams.
I am an enthusiast in the social media and #FOAMed world (@SocraticEM), and am co-producer of Simulcast and host of the Harvard Macy Institute podcast. I also serves as a faculty member with the Harvard Macy Institute.
My main research interests are in the application of simulation and scenario based training in health service environments. In particular, the opportunities for targeting health service outcomes and improving interdepartmental collaboration with translational simulation activities.
Statement for HDR students
I would be interested in projects involving the application of simulation within a health service environment - for education and training, and for health service improvement.
