Biography
Dr Lavinia Tran is a Research Fellow with the Centre of Cardiovascular Research and Education in Therapeutics (CCRET) and Program Manager (Research and Projects) of the Australia and New Zealand Society of Cardiac and Thoracic Surgeons (ANZSCTS) Bi-national Cardiac Surgery Registry. Dr Tran’s research is focused on utilising Clinical Quality Registries (CQR) to drive change to improve patient outcomes. She has published 35 peer reviewed articles over the past 8 years and has a strong knowledge of CQR in all aspects including development of protocol and data definitions, implementation, outcomes research, and data feedback and engagement.
Dr Tran was awarded a Heart Foundation grant to pilot a structured feedback method in the ANZSCTS registry. This research was published and the data directly assisted with the design and future reporting methods of the registry to hospitals and government bodies. Dr Tran has also been involved in many data linkage projects and has experience in registry embedded trials as well as risk model developement.

In 2020-21 Dr Tran was awarded a Monash Partners Fellowship to explore visual representation models to improve access and utilisation of health data in the form of clinical data dashboards. Dr Tran's work was published in a report to guide the development of data dashboards in healthcare and registries using evidence-based metholodies.
