Keynote Address - Research Careers: Qualities and Inequalities

This is a brief talk, followed by a Q and A so we have plenty of time to think together. I give some context to my work and my interests, how (and why) I have approached my career and the lens of quality, relational productivity, and being the difference I want to see (which is the hard bit). This latter seems to me the only authentic way to work in unequal contexts. 

Professor Lyndall Strazdins is a leader in work, family and health, authored or co-authored > 150 peer reviewed journal papers, commissioned reports or discussion papers. She has been a lead or co-lead on competitive grants, consultancies and partnerships > $8M, an ARC Future Fellow and awarded the EU Marie SkÅ‚odowska-Curie International Fellowship Seal of Excellence in 2017. Her papers have been repeatedly ranked among the top 5 in their year in her field. 

Professor Strazdins leads research on time as a determinant of health. Lack of time is the most common reason for not eating healthy food or being physically active and her work shows why time is a problem, and for whom. Most recently she has been using new methods to reveal the health harms of long work hours, which are emerging as one of the most important drivers of social and gender inequality.
