ANZSN-ANZDATA Epi Fellow Achievements
We celebrate Eric Au, our 2023–2024 ANZSN-ANZDATA Clinical Epidemiology Fellow, for advancing dialysis research and trainee support. Key highlights include completing the 2022 Dialysis Capacity Survey, preparing the Haemodialysis Capacity Report, and presenting at the ANZSN Annual Scientific Meeting. Eric assisted 10 trainees with research, resulting in a journal publication and three conference abstracts, and delivered a workshop at the 2023 ANZSN Advanced Trainee Weekend. He developed a policy guideline for trainee research, initiated a new research project call, and contributed to ANZDATA’s data reviews, meetings, and Annual Report. We thank Eric for his dedication and impact.
