Congratulations to #superstar #PhD student Binuri Perera for an excellent confirmation seminar about injury-related bloodstream infections yesterday! You know it was great when all supervisors were smiling at the end! Thanks to everyone who came for your support. AusHSI @kvallmuur

Are spelling and citation errors the most serious problem in research papers? No Are these errors a sign of rushed practice? Most likely Do they represent the tip of the iceberg in today's 'publish or perish' culture? Yes with @aidybarnett - article now available open access👇

Today we are privileged to be attending the confirmation seminar of one of our PhD students Ashleigh Earnshaw, who is evaluating the West Moreton HHS Preventive Integrated Care Service (PICS), a pragmatic hybrid type 3 effectiveness and implementation evaluation.
