Congratulations on your success Jacqueline Roots!

Among the other things, she sought and successfully obtained funds from the largest sonography association in Australia, created and maintained a clinical collaboration with the reference centre in Queensland for stroke treatment, published three papers and submitted one more, successfully given her Final seminar, won the Faculty of Health 3 Minute Thesis competition and was runner up at the QUT finals. Nominated by her supervisor Prof Davide Fontanarosa.
