Ariane Laplante-Lévesque - PhD in Health and Rehabilitation Sciences
Canada
My experience at UQ has been about so much more than just doing a PhD. I worked at UQ as a lecturer, clinical educator, tutor, marker, research supervisor, and research assistant. I travelled extensively and presented my research at four different international conferences overseas during my candidature. I also spent six weeks in Europe on a UQ Graduate School Travel Grant.
I wrote a book chapter and designed a continuing education module for audiologists. I supervised the work of research assistants and acted as peer reviewer for four different scientific journals. I was involved in the sporting community at UQ and also did some committee work. It was very varied and rewarding to be involved in so many different things. I loved interacting with people from around the world and from different walks of life, both whilst at UQ and whilst travelling.
My research was into rehabilitation intervention of hearing impairment patients.
Dr Laplante -Lévesque now works in Scandinavia as a Post-doctoral researcher at the Eriksholm Centre in Denmark and Linköping University in Sweden.
