Biography
Thomasina Donovan is an early career health services researcher at QUT's AusHSI. In her Research Fellow role, she expands on her PhD work and refines her researching skills across a variety of projects. She works collaboratively with multi-disciplinary stakeholders, applying her implementation science and costing expertise to projects. In one project, she is academic coordinator for the CHD LIFE+ project.In her PhD, she used the knowledge from the fields of health economics and implementation science to develop a costing implementation strategies (Cost-IS) instrument. Cost-IS assists in data collection of the costs associated with implementation strategies for digital health innovations. Cost-IS provides a pragmatic and flexible approach that can be tailored to meet the needs of various projects. Cost-IS aims to enable implementation costing which is important to support appropriate resourcing of implementation efforts and address the knowledge gap in implementation science research. The Cost-IS instrument and its development can be found here.
Prior to her PhD, Thomasina worked in cellular and molecular biology, specifically epigenetics, in the fields of oncology, immunology and exercise science.
