Dr Emma Jamieson Dr Emma Jamieson is a Future Health Research and Innovation Fund Translational Research Fellow with UWA Rural Clinical School of WA, based in the Southwest region. As part of a team of state-wide researchers and clinicians she conducts collaborative community and health services research to improve health outcomes in rural and remote Australia. The predominant focus of her research is improving outcomes for people with diabetes; her PhD on screening for hyperglycaemia in pregnancy in rural and remote communities has led to implementation of improved preanalytical protocols for glucose measurement and a collaboration with the National Harmonisation Glucose Preanalytical Working Party. Prior to this her focus was on pancreatic islet biology and transplantation research at St Vincent’s Institute (Melbourne) and Harry Perkins Institute (Perth).
