Background

Natalie is a health services researcher and statistical epidemiologist. Her research focus is to improve evidence-based best practice within health services focusing on primary prevention and early detection, particularly for Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander infants, children, adolescents and their families. Having worked within government and non-government organisations across policy, practice and research projects, Natalie’s work has a strong focus on ensuring projects delivered are needs based and inform policy and practice.

Drawing upon her extensive experience, Natalie effectively facilitates collaborative solutions to important health issues such as improving early child development, vaccination and breastfeeding rates, and reducing ear disease. As a research-focussed scholar, her efforts have led to >50 journal publications and over $8.0M in competitive funding as a Chief Investigator. These accomplishments have translated into actionable evidence and have been incorporated into Australian health policy documents and World Health Organization health guidelines. Furthermore, they have facilitated the implementation of innovative practices within health services and have played a pivotal role in the education and training of health service providers, policy makers, researchers, and HDR students.

Natalie’s future career vision includes building research capability of staff and students to develop a sustainable high-quality program of work that improves the health, development, and wellbeing outcomes for infants, children and young people.
