The Symposium Research and Innovation Education Series brings together a diverse group of speakers who will provide you with the latest evidence and information about emerging ideas.
There are two sessions running on the day with an option to tailor your attendance across both sessions - staying in one or the other or seeing bits of both.
Program details available at www.slhd.nsw.gov.au/innovationSymposium.
Option One: Revolutionise your research and its implementation
Time: 8:00am - 3:00pm
Presenters: Professor Jennifer Alison, A/Professor Mark Elkins, Matthew Bagg, Dr Gustavo Machado, Professor Andrew Ballie, Dr Sharyn Lymer, Dr Michelle Cunich, Dr Justin Scanlan, Emma Power.
This workshop consists of a series of presentations by a diverse group of speakers that will help bring you up to speed with some recent developments in how research can be conducted and where it can focus. Among the questions that will be answered are:
- How should cohort studies differ if they are focussed on prediction or causation?
- How can one systematic literature review compare treatments simultaneously?
- What is a stepped-wedge randomised trial?
- What advances have happened in health economics research and outcome measures?
- How can we empower people to engage more in health decisions?
- How can we involve patients and other consumers more in research?
- What is implementation science?
Presenters will refer to key resources that you can refer to for more information.
Option Two: Non-adherence: 800 lb gorilla or nude emperor?
Time: 8:00am - 12:00pm
Presenter: Professor Tim Lambert, Professor of Psychiatry at Concord Clinical School, University of Sydney. Clinical and academic director of the Collaborative Centre for Cardiometabolic Health in

This topic will be of interest to clinicians, researchers, and clinical triallists, as well as peer support workers and educationalists. Among the topics that will be presented are:
- What is non-adherence?
- How common is it?
- Is non-adherence linked to particular disciplines or interventional approaches?
- What are the biological, social and psychological consequences of poor adherence?
