Our research group focuses on clinical research, rehabilitation and translation into practice. We harness research as a vehicle to improve clinical care and health outcomes for people in the Canberra region and around the world.
Our research spectrum is broad, ranging from hospital care recovery, acute injury or impairments, to living better with chronic illnesses and emerging conditions like long COVID.
We explore innovative solutions for a broad range of health conditions, even robotic technologies and we actively partner with clinicians and community members.
We walk together with First Nations people to assist them in their clinical research priority areas. We will accelerate the implementation of better practices by using effective translation frameworks and building capability with partners in knowledge translation.
Donations can be used to support our research and improve outcomes for patients.
Small donations will contribute to funding research projects and access for participants to projects, and larger donations might fund an honours, Master or PhD student, or launch a project that might otherwise not have been possible.
As a multidisciplinary group, we aim tor improve clinical care and health outcomes, working with clinical partners to identify pressing issues and with community members to set priorities using consumer co-design.

Our multidisciplinary team of researchers, clinicians and academics come from a wide range of allied health and nursing disciplines.

We are focused on optimising evidence-based practice, by using effective translation frameworks.
Examples of our work include:
Community representatives are invited to join the Community Partnership Group of the Clinical Research Rehabilitation and Translation Research Group at UC.
As a community representative, you might have lived with a health issue, or be family or carer for someone with a recent or ongoing condition. Bring your knowledge of community issues and share your views about research priorities and make it easier for our community to participate in research.
If you are interested in participating in a research study with Clinical Research Rehabilitation and Translation, please get in touch at ucclinicalresearch@canberra.edu.au.
We are happy to share our research and are keen to work with others who have an interest in improving our health – whether organisations, researchers or community members.
