About this position

Call for applications for a graduate research project at The University of Queensland (UQ), Australia, focused on analysis of health system effectiveness and strengthened perinatal care for autistic expectant parents.

This is a Higher Degree by Research (HDR) opportunity and is best aligned with candidates interested in public health, medical science, nursing, psychology, sociology, disability inclusion, health policy, and related allied health fields. The project examines how current health systems support autistic people during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum care, with attention to barriers, gaps, patient-provider relationships, accessibility, communication, and health equity.

The research aims to generate evidence that can improve healthcare policies, clinical practices, support systems, and inclusive maternity care for autistic parents. Potential research directions include autism and maternal healthcare experiences, accessibility of healthcare services, health system evaluation, and perinatal outcomes.
