Dr Matthew Tieu is a Research Fellow in the Simulation Research Program at Adelaide Health Simulation (AHS). He brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to his current role which focuses on exploring and understanding the theoretical foundations of health simulation and simulation-based education.
His formal qualifications span multiple disciplines across the biological sciences, humanities and social sciences, including his PhD which applies a philosophical, sociological, and lifespan developmental psychology perspective to understanding selfhood and identity. His PhD thesis was developed into a book titled Self and Identity published by Routledge:Taylor & Francis.
Prior to joining AHS, he was a Research Fellow at Flinders University focusing on qualitative research and theory development across a broad range of topics including aged and dementia care, women's health, digital health technology, knowledge translation, and cancer survivorship. His research demonstrates how ethical, philosophical and social sciences perspectives underpin, inform, and continue to shape our understanding and practice of healthcare. He also has extensive teaching experience in philosophy and applied ethics, both here at the University of Adelaide and Flinders University. Outside of academia, he has worked in the aged care industry on quality improvement projects, bioethics and policy.
With such an eclectic background, he brings an innovative, rigorous and epistemically sound post-disciplinary approach to research in health simulation, befitting of the multifaceted, complex and transdisciplinary nature of simulation-based education.
