Mia Majstorovic
Higher Degree by Research Candidate
School of Psychology
Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences
I am a second-year Doctor of Philosophy (Psychology/Medicine) student, working under the supervision of Professors Anna Chur-Hansen, Jane Andrews and Anne Burke.
My team and I are investigating the pathway to bariatric surgery, in terms of factors that are associated with progression (or non-progression) to surgery. The project explores factors at the patient, clinician, organisational and governmental levels. The aim is to ensure that the processes and decisions determining which patients receive surgery are justified and equitable, and that patient needs are adequately supported.
I employ qualitative and quantitative methods, as well as review methodologies.
