Emergency Care Research Symposium
We invite health and medical researchers to submit an abstract of original work for consideration as a poster at the 2024 Gold Coast Health Emergency Care Research Symposium. We encourage submissions from novice researchers, which might include bachelor/honours level students, PhD students, and health professionals engaged in research, as well as more established researchers. The theme of the conference is ‘Embedding research into clinical practice’ and encompasses a wide range of health and healthcare-related topics. In keeping with the theme of the symposium, all submissions should have relevance to Emergency Care. Pre-clinical (i.e., bench) research is not the focus of this conference.
The Emergency Care Research Group is hosting its 2nd Symposium on 23 and 24 May 2024. The two-day event will include keynote speakers, CPD points, a networking event and more. Early Bird Tickets go on sale November 2023. Register your interest to be informed of updates here.
Topics will relate to Paediatrics, Trauma and Pre-Hospital, Emergency Care, Vulnerable Populations, Education and Simulation, Ultrasound and Workforce. Contact: GCEDResearchAdmin@health.qld.gov.au for further information.
