Part of her current role includes staying up to date with systematic review methods and reviewing alternative ways of conducting reviews. Upcoming work will focus on developing a systematic review of liver cancer surveillance. The findings will be used to inform clinical practice guidelines for liver cancer surveillance in Australia.
