Cardiovascular Research Institute Brainstorming Session

Western Sydney is the epicentre of Australia's healthcare opportunities and challenges. Growing, urban, diverse and aspirational, Western Sydney is transforming, and needs a healthcare system that transforms with it. To deliver this healthcare system we need a new model of health research – a model that integrates world-class research into policy and practice. A model that focuses on the community and supports seamless healthcare from primary and population health through to acute hospital treatment. A model that considers carers and families, the local economy and the environment. Western Sydney University, embedded in the most diverse and interesting health community in Australia, is creating this new model: THRI.THRI is Western Sydney University's Translational Health Research Institute. Western Sydney University produces world class research in public health and health services, psychology, nursing, human geography, paediatrics and reproductive medicine, microbiology, pharmacology, and many other important areas of healthcare. Our researchers cover diseases – both acute and chronic — health service delivery and new models of care. THRI connects Western Sydney University's research to the nation's fastest growing urban population, Western Sydney. Research is most powerful when it is done in partnership and THRI will partner with health practitioners, hospitals, local health districts, primary health networks and, of course, patients.

Translational Health Research Institute (THRI) Western Sydney University

THRI and MARCS will run a brainstorming session involving clinicians from the Cardiology, Cardiothoracic, Vascular Surgery, Research Nursing Staff, Centre for Applied Nursing (CANR) and other researchers from Western Sydney University to share ideas, thoughts and discuss new initiatives for the Institute. 
A/Prof Craig Juergens and his team of academic clinicians from the Cardiovascular Stream of SWSLHD would like to welcome speakers/researchers from leading academic institutions in NSW to take part in this session. Members from Cardiology, Cardiothoracic Surgery, Vascular Surgery and Nursing Staff across the district are invited and we would like to hear presentations from potential collaborators’ about their individual research programs and how they would potentially interact with our proposed institute. We hope to then dedicate some time on brainstorming potential research projects we could do together and thereby setup a research agenda for our proposed academic unit. 
The session will be held at the Thomas &amp; Rachel Moore Auditorium.
