Overview
Background
Dr Ngo is a highly successful recent PhD graduate from The University of Queensland who has led a project examining outcomes of catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation at a nationwide scale in Australia and New Zealand. Throughout her PhD study, Dr Ngo has excelled in outcomes research and her work has been selected as finalist for prize competitions at local and international conferences, most notably, the Young Investigator Award competition at Heart Rhythm Society Scientific Meeting 2020. Besides her success in academia, she is also a passionate young doctor who graduated from one of the best medical schools in Vietnam with multiple prizes and awards achieved, including the prestigious Australia Awards Fellowship. She is now working as a RMO at The Prince Charles Hospital.

Research interests
-
Outcomes
Evaluating outcomes of care or diseases at a population-wide scale.
-
Cardiovascular disease
I'm particularly interested in doing research to understand and improve outcomes of patients with cardiovascular diseases, especially arrhythmia.
Research impacts
Although very early in her career, Dr Ngo has authored and co-authored more than 30 publications, including those published in prestigous journals such as European Heart Journal, Stroke, and Medical Journal of Australia. Her extensive experience in working with large-scale health data using complex statisitical modelling to assess care outcomes is evidenced by her excellent publication record. Dr Ngo's work has also been recognised both locally and internationally, as well as attracted significant media attention. She is also very keen on sharing her knowledge and skills by participating in teaching acitivites at The Prince Charles Hospital, University of Queensland and co-supervising postgraduate students.
