My project is focussed on resource use by health professionals who work to detect otitis media (middle ear infections) in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children. I hope that this research will lead to a better understanding of the training and support needs for health professionals working in this space and translate to more timely, accessible and culturally appropriate care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children accessing these services.<\/p>\n<p>I am an Audiologist by trade and have spent most of my career working in community settings to detect ear health concerns and hearing loss in infants and young children. I&#8217;m also no stranger to Flinders University, having spent a significant amount of time studying and working here over the last twenty years. I am grateful for this opportunity to represent you on the University Higher Degree by Research Committee and am excited to engage with the HDR community in such a meaningful way over my term with the committee.<\/p>\n<h3>About Nathan Harrison<\/h3>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-656\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/hdr-students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/92\/2022\/10\/Yellow-Line-1024x18.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"11\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/hdr-students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/92\/2022\/10\/Yellow-Line-1024x18.png 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/hdr-students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/92\/2022\/10\/Yellow-Line-300x5.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/hdr-students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/92\/2022\/10\/Yellow-Line-768x13.png 768w, https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/hdr-students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/92\/2022\/10\/Yellow-Line.png 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1098 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/hdr-students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/92\/2024\/03\/Nathan-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"218\" height=\"327\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/hdr-students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/92\/2024\/03\/Nathan-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/hdr-students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/92\/2024\/03\/Nathan-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/hdr-students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/92\/2024\/03\/Nathan-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/hdr-students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/92\/2024\/03\/Nathan.jpg 853w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 218px) 100vw, 218px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Hi there!
