Jagnoor Jagnoor

Jagnoor is Senior Research Fellow, with a background in injury epidemiology. She has a conjoint appointment as Senior Lecturer, Faculty of Medicine, UNSW, and an honorary Senior Lecturer appointment, School of the Public Health University of Sydney, and The John Walsh Centre for Rehabilitation Research.

Jagnoor’ s research interests are exploring the impact of injuries, assessing issues of equity and vulnerability in the distribution of the burden of injuries, evaluating potential interventions to reduce the burden of injuries in Australia, Africa, and Asia, and contributing to data for decision making in preventing injuries and improving recovery post-injury.

Her current research spans a broad range, including injury prevention, rehabilitation, health-related quality of life, economic impact, and alternate systems of insurance with respect to injury, whiplash, and mild traumatic brain injury. She is passionate about creating new knowledge to best address the injury burden in low middle-income populations with competing for health needs. She is engaged in several projects in LMIC working on injury surveillance systems, road injuries, burns, falls, and drowning.
