Workforce Competencies and Gap Analysis for Clinical Information Modelling in Australia

Opportunity: Australia’s national interoperability initiative, including the Australian Core Data for Interoperability (AUCDI) and the Sparked‑AU Program depend on a capable workforce with clinical information modelling (CIM) skills—a specialised discipline that transforms clinical knowledge into structured, consensus-driven data models.

DHCRC localisation of OECD AI Classification Framework to support governance of investment and commercialisation of AI systems amongst Australian SMEs

Opportunity: This project will develop an online tool to help classify different types of Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions used in Australian healthcare. The online tool will adapt the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) AI Classification Framework to the Australian context, reflecting recent government policies, including proposed mandatory guardrails for AI across the Australian economy.

Governance of AI applications in health service organisations

Opportunity: Existing AI ethics frameworks have been largely theoretical and difficult to operationalise within complex healthcare environments. This project addressed this by developing and testing a practical governance framework and AI maturity model within a leading Australian health service.

Spatial management of health risk: Applying geospatial technology for risk visualisation, hotspot identification, and analysis of geographic variation

Opportunity: Health systems collect vast amounts of information about healthcare use, yet often lack visibility of the geographic and environmental factors that influence health outcomes. This project explored how geospatial technologies can enrich health data to better support health planning and risk management.
