His final message - your students are already on social media. Let's not make them always come to us, let's reach them where they are. #anzahpe2023

Yikes. @drmiketodorovic suggests that while we might remember 2004 (before social media), most of our university students are Gen Z and won't. They have always lived in a world with a wealth of information available (so attention is a limited resource 🤑) #anzahpe2023

A ground-breaking clinical trial is underway for a new drug to reduce brain tissue death after ischemic stroke. 🧠👨‍🔬 Designed to be used by first responders, the drug was developed by Professors Bruno Meloni, Neville Knuckey, and their team at #UWA and @PerronInstitute. 👏👏👏

Eight researchers from our #UWA Medical School have been awarded almost $8 million combined in grants for projects ranging from antibiotic alternatives in pregnancy and reducing chronic pain in breast cancer patients.

Final year #UWA medical students can now do a year of training in Albany, Bunbury or Broome. 🧑‍⚕️👏 The Rural Clinical School of WA program is designed to sustain a thriving rural medical workforce and create healthier communities. 🏥

Such a great session and so timely given the re-establishment wave of global higher education partnerships. 🙏
Replying to @anzahpe
@anzahpe and @AMEE_Online symposium at #anzahpe2022 showcased collaboration in action! So much fun with @jamckimm Chinthaka, Trevor Gibbs and interviews with @VishnaDevi @BonnyDickinson2. Great insight from delegates on where collaborations should go next!

After the MD curriculum had a ‘mid-life crisis’ at age 10yrs, Lisa Cheshire tells us about the re-engineering to increase diversity of students, create flexible pathways to accommodate for students’ needs and a stronger focus on collaborative practice and assessment for learning

Thanks Dr Joanne Hart from @syd_health presenting on the impact of the pandemic on our medical students undertaking research. There’s a dual-sided gap in 1) important research findings entering practice and 2) student experience as future clinical researchers. #anzahpe2022

My take away from @SuzannePitama keynote at the @anzahpe festival: Health Prof edu is often not Culturally Safe for First Nations academics and Cultural Load is too high. Non-Indigenous engagement and institutional support are essential for an aligned EDI Framework development. – at Victoria, Australia

And Suz’s tip for us to focus not just on selection of Indigenous health students but also selection of culturally safe non-Indigenous medical students will be top agenda item of our next admission and selection meeting @uwanews. Thanks again @SuzannePitama
