About the Nutrition Research Collaborative
The Nutrition Research Collaborative was established by the Nutrition and Dietetics department of the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital (RBWH) in 2023 to bring together and leverage the research experience and networks formed over many years. It is our vision to be the go-to group for expertise in nutrition and dietetics research and its translation into practice.
The Nutrition Research Collaborative is comprised of likeminded clinician and academic researchers working together to improve the health of our community through research and collaboration.
Philosophy
The sum of our collaborative effort is much greater than our individual efforts.
Vision
The Nutrition Research Collaborative is the go-to group for expertise in nutrition research and its translation into practice.
Who we are
We are a critical mass of nutrition and dietetic clinician and academic researchers from novices through to internationally recognised experts across all clinical areas.
We are based within the clinical hospital and community setting and in academia with established multidisciplinary statewide, national and international networks, that we are eager to expand.
We have established collaborations with research institutes that enable and enhance research capability e.g., biostatistics, health economics, access to grants, scholarships, and fellowships.
We have established partnerships with consumer representatives from all walks of life who work with us to plan and execute our research programs.
We have external partnership capabilities, demonstrated through established collaborations with Queensland University of Technology, The University of Queensland, Monash University, Deakin University, CSIRO, QIMR Berghofer and The Queensland Cancer Survivorship Collaborative, The Queensland Children’s Hospital, Health & Wellbeing Qld, Flinders University.
