Medical Research
We partner with UNSW to mentor future doctors, guiding research that addresses real challenges in healthcare delivery for rural communities.
Over the past two years, Nova Health Co has facilitated research placements for fourth-year medical students from UNSW. Each project involves the student and their supervisor developing a research topic that addresses an issue relevant to healthcare delivery in rural communities. Working collaboratively with Dr Trudi Beck and their co-supervisors, students design the study, obtain ethics approval, collect and analyse data, and ultimately produce a research manuscript.
The following research projects have been undertaken under the invaluable guidance of Dr Trudi Beck:
- 2025 – Emily Cox, ILP: Shared Medical Appointments in Perinatal Care: Potential Benefits in a Regional Setting. Click to read (PDF).
- 2026 – Caitlin Wheeler, Honours: Client-Led Early Medical Abortion Follow-up: A Model of Care Evaluation. Click to read (PDF).
Your health, supported at every stage.
From your first appointment through every stage that follows, our doctors, midwives and allied health team are here to support you.
