I found that world-class research on ‘patient-reported outcomes’ was going on in the discipline of optometry at Flinders. I contacted the researchers and things started from there. Flinders offered great support to carry out our research: internal (library resources, research higher degree professional development programs, workshops) and external (collaborations with hospitals and other institutes) that were extremely useful to successfully carrying out my research.
