Professorial Academic Unit

The Professorial Academic Unit is comprised of researchers with complementary skill sets whose goal is to enable and conduct high quality, clinically relevant and translational research in line with the vision and research priorities of Peninsula Health. Their expertise spans clinical medicine, bioinformatics and imaging, health services research including data linkage, and biostatistics. The role of the Academic Unit is also to enable an active research and teaching partnership with Monash University, and to build strong relationships with key local, national and international collaborators.

Members of the Unit are an integral part of the National Centre for Healthy Ageing (NCHA), a Commonwealth funded enterprise in collaboration with Monash University. They lead the development of the NCHA research data platform incorporating electronic health data and external data linkages, to facilitate large scale efficient research in clinical and population samples.
