JTI celebrates first PhD candidate<\/h1><\/h1><\/div>

\"\"Jamieson Trauma Institute has welcomed its very first PhD candidate, who will take a deeper look into how trauma is treated across the state.<\/p>\n

Dr Adam Mahoney is a medical officer and anaesthetist in the Australian Regular Army who completed his undergraduate medical training at the University of New South Wales.<\/p>\n

After graduating in 2010, Dr Mahoney would spent some time in Tasmania before moving to Melbourne in 2017 to undertake a trauma anaesthesia fellowship at The Alfred Hospital.<\/p>\n

Dr Mahoney said it was during his time at The Alfred that he gained a greater appreciation of the systems that could so greatly influence the outcome of trauma casualties.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis led me to explore opportunities for traumatology research with COL Michael Reade, the Chair of Military Medicine and Surgery at the University of Queensland,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe introduced me to his colleagues at the Jamieson Trauma Institute and the Queensland University of Technology, who have guided me in developing my current project.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dr Mahoney\u2019s PhD research will link data from several sources to characterise the \u201cspatiotemporal epidemiology\u201d of major trauma in Queensland.<\/p>\n

Dr Mahoney said outlier locations with higher than expected standardised incidence and case-fatality rate will be examined in order to identify potential associations with the distribution and nature of trauma services and civil infrastructure.<\/p>\n

\u201cI expect that that geographic disparities in trauma outcomes will have decreased over time, reflecting maturation of the Queensland trauma system,\u201d Dr Mahoney said.<\/p>\n<\/div>
