About the opportunity We are pleased to offer a part-time funded Master of Nursing (Research) for an enthusiastic candidate wanting to lead clinical studies and gain skills in neonatal nursing research. This position is offered jointly through Mercy Perinatal (Prof Brett Manley & Dr Shiraz Badurdeen), La Trobe (Prof Chris East), and the Neonatal Nursing Leadership Team at the Mercy Hospital for Women. The successful candidate will support the running of a randomised controlled trial that is aimed at improving intubation safety. Specifically, the trial will test whether the application of nasal prong oxygen (low flow) during laryngoscopy increases first intubation success without dangerous desaturation or bradycardia for preterm and term infants. Additional studies can be built around this trial based on the candidate's interests, for example using implementation science, human factors, or novel approaches to improve equitable participation in trials. The position would comprise fractional EFT allocations across research nursing, clinical nursing, and student activities, collectively forming a full‑time equivalent appointment.
