Professor Pip Logan

Co-Director, STARS Education and Research Alliance

Professor Pip Logan is the co-director of the STARS Education and Research Alliance, since August 2024. Pip also works 0.5FTE as Professor in Occupational Therapy with the School of Rehabilitation Sciences at UQ. Pip previously worked at the University of Nottingham, UK where she held the highest NIHR award, the Senior Investigator Award. Pip worked clinically as an occupational therapist in the community with people who have long term health conditions such as stroke, Parkinson’s Disease, frailty, musculoskeletal disorders and dementia. Her research interests are in line with her clinical role, and she has just completed the largest study in UK care homes, developing and evaluating a programme to prevent falls, funded by the National Institute for Health and Social Care Research (£2.2M). As the intervention was clinically and cost effective, she is now researching the implementation of the effective intervention.
