PhD Candidate Presentation - Patrick Amoatey and Hannah Taylor
Patrick Amoatey
Patrick will provide updates of some current heat-related studies he has conducted during his PhD candidature in SPH, UQ. These will include:(1) the effects of diurnal temperature range on mortality and emergency presentations in Victoria State of Australia, (2) temporal changes in temperature-related mortality in relation to the establishment of the heat-health alert system in Victoria, and (3) the spatiotemporal evaluation of human heat-health vulnerability in Australia (preliminary results of my PhD project).
Hannah Taylor

However, little is known about the impacts and intersectionalities of coercive control for First Nation women. Hannah is taking a deep dive into the intersections of Coercive Control for First Nation woman and how this debate will impact their worlds, the public health impacts and where too from here.
