Congratulations to Dr Yobelli Jimenez on her appointment as ANZAHPE Associate Fellow.

About Yobelli

I am a radiation therapist and I completed my PhD in 2018. My PhD project brought together my interests in high quality patient care, education and technology. My PhD project evaluated the use of a virtual reality tool to educate women with breast cancer about radiation therapy. I am currently working as a Lecturer in the Discipline of Medical Imaging Science at the University of Sydney.

 My research interests are focused on health profession student education, and I am currently working across various projects, exploring the use of technology for student education, ethics, and student wellbeing. I have participated in ANZAHPE conferences and workshops for a long time, finding that these activities align well to my interests and values for growing evidence base of education research. In 2021, I had the opportunity to participate in the ANZAHPE mentoring program, which further enhanced my commitment to quality education research. I decided to apply for Associate Fellowship to continue my association with the ANZAHPE community and collaborate with professionals and researchers who share my passion for research in teaching and learning.
