‘Meet the Researcher’ Video Showcase

Alfred Health Week Video ShowcaseThis Alfred Health Week, we will be launching our first Video Showcase to give our community some insight into the talented people behind the research that happens on our precinct.

As numbers are limited, there will be a selection process to determine which researchers will be featured in the series. The chosen researchers will have their videos shown online and in the Innovation & Education Hub throughout Alfred Health Week. The videos will also be made available to you to use in promotion of your work on your own social media channels.

If you would like to be considered for the video series, you can apply when you submit your abstract for the Scientific Abstract Competition. On the form, you’ll see a series of questions:

  • What health challenges are you solving with your research?
    • Consider the aim of your research and why it’s important to the community.
  • What does your research involve?
    • A short description of your methods and processes.
  • How will your research help achieve better outcomes in the future?
    • Consider your results and conclusion, and what they offer in terms of delivering improved health outcomes.

The answers to these questions (in lay language) will form the basis of your video to showcase your work to the broader community.

Additionally, you have the opportunity to tell us a bit more about yourself with our ‘Behind the Research’ video montages. These montages will highlight all the different activities our researchers get up to when they’re not in the lab, and celebrate the wonderful diversity of researchers on our precinct.

If you are selected, taking part is very simple and won’t require much of your time – successful applicants will also receive further instructions ahead of filming. Keep an eye on this page for more information in the weeks ahead.
