About The Showcase

The Health Beyond Research & Innovation Showcase brings together allied health professionals, nurses, doctors and researchers from South Western Sydney to present their work across disciplines including health service research, cancer, community health, clinical medicine, biomedical research, mental health and others. Presentations will cover programs currently underway at the  Ingham Institute  and the  South Western Sydney Local Health District; in conjunction with our valued partners UNSW Australia  and  Western Sydney University.

This year’s Showcase, themed “Dedicated to Discovery, Committed to Care”, will deliver insights into healthcare ethics, the physical and psychological manifestations of trauma, and the value of resilience in pursuit of personal and professional growth. The event will explore the diverse environmental, health, research and education landscape in South Western Sydney and, in that context, will proffer evidence for improving the healthcare journey and health outcomes of our communities, both locally and beyond.

People should know that innovation is the new way to go.

Good to get ideas, to be inspired and make new things.

Diana Odisho

There is rarely an opportunity to get together and hear about what people outside of your own discipline are doing. I think that’s really important.

Then there’s the opportunity for cross-pollination of ideas when you do that.
