BUILDING COLLABORATIONS AND MAINTAINING WELLBEING AS A RESEARCHERDr Freya MacMillan and Dr Kate McBride
Dr Freya MacMillan is a Senior Lecturer in Interprofessional Health Sciences based in the School of Science and Health at Western Sydney University. Dr Kate McBride is a Lecturer in Population Health in the Translational Health Research Institute atWestern Sydney University. Dr Carolyn Ee is a Jacka Foundation Senior Research Fellow at NICM Health Research Institute, Western Sydney University, as well as a practicing GP. All three of these women are ECRs having gained their PhDs in the past5 years, who balance motherhood with work (with children ranging in age from 15 months to 18 years between them), and havemanaged to sustain rapidly rising research trajectories post PhD.
This workshop is targeted at clinicians and academics in the early stages of their research careers, who are facing challenges infinding a work life balance that allows for undertaken research productively. The session will focus on initiating and maintainingsuccessful research collaborations to ensure that ECRs can undertake research in a manageable and effective manner, whilstlooking after one's own health and wellbeing. Activities in this workshop will assist ECRs in: defining their mission; finding researchopportunities to progress with and others to avoid; identifying appropriate partners to collaborate with and ways of reachingout to form new collaborations; how to work effectively with others; how to maintain collaborations over the long term; andfinding strategies to look after their physical and mental health and reduce risk of burnout. Whether you are male, female, purelyacademic, clinical or a mix of both, with or without parental or caring responsibilities, with little or lots of research experience, ifyou are in the early stage of your research career, this is the workshop for you!

WANT TO REDUCE INJECTED DOSE BY UP TO 25%?
gehealthcare.com.au
It’s now possible with the new 800 Series
1 Compared to LEHR collimator, with Step & Shoot scan mode (for SPECT) / without Clarity 2D (for Planar).As demonstrated in phantom testing using a bone scan protocol, Evolution processing (for SPECT), and a model observer. Because model observer results may not always match those from a human reader, the actual time/dose reduction depends on the clinical task, patient size, anatomical location and clinical practice. A radiologist should determine the appropriate scan time/dose for the particular clinical task.
everything we’ve learned over the course of 20 years by bringing the latest in SPECT/CT advancements to a wider range of clinical environments.
The 800 Series includes a collection of SPECT enhancements like SwiftScan Planar and SwiftScan SPECT that can increase sensitivity and enable reduction of scan times or injected dose by as much as 25 percent , without a loss in signal-to-noise ratio.1
