Victoria’s research to date has focused on determining the vascular changes in pre-eclamptic and hypertensive pregnancies, migraine, and stroke. Victoria received first class Honours in 2015 from the University of the Sunshine Coast, the findings from which have been presented at 3 national and 3 international conferences.
Victoria is currently undertaking a PhD at the University of Queensland, Perinatal Research Centre, under the mentorship of world leading clinician researchers, Professors Paul Colditz and Ian Wright. This research aims to extend her research focus on vascular changes in pregnancy, to understanding vascular changes in sick premature infants, and the impact that this has on their brain health.
