Our People: Central to healthcare

How passion and grit shape effective healthcare research

CALHN Season 1 Episode 8

CALHN Our People podcast | Season 1 Episode 8 | 

We speak with Associate Professor Liz Sutton about how her professional and personal experiences have shaped her into an effective leader and facilitator of high quality healthcare research. 

Liz is Director of Research at Central Adelaide Local Health Network. 

A common misconception about researchers is that they’re white-coated introverts who tinker away in laboratories, disconnected from the real world. 

In reality researchers are diverse, interesting and passionate people who are highly motivated to make a real difference. 

Liz is not your cookie-cutter health researcher. She brings a background that touches on many core aspects of health, including nursing, biomedical ethics, international development and not-for-profits, workforce training and accreditation, policy, advanced care planning and more.
