AIHI joins Macquarie University

The Australian Institute of Health Innovation joined Macquarie University's newly-established Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences on Monday, 3rd November, 2014. Institute staff, led by Professors Jeffrey Braithwaite, Enrico Coiera, and Johanna Westbrook, are internationally-regarded researchers in health systems, e-health, patient safety and implementation science.

Professor Sakkie Pretorius, Deputy Vice-Chancellor of Research, recently said the Institute’s decision to join Macquarie was a sign of the University’s emergence as a major force in medicine and health. “While we have long had research and teaching strengths in areas of allied health such as psychology and audiology, it is only in the last decade that Macquarie University has begun to establish its credentials in medicine,” he said.
