Overview
Background
Lyndal Pritchard is a Clinical Associate Lecturer in the School of Dentistry at the University of Queensland and a PhD candidate. She holds professional registration through AHPRA as an oral health practitioner. Her work focuses on health services research, where she collaborates with leading experts in public oral health.
Lyndal is an active member of several UQ research groups, including the School of Dentistry Research Committee, Public Health Research group, and is part of the investigative team on the MRFF 2022 Dementia, Ageing and Aged Care project “Oral Health in Aged Care: Addressing Oral Health Inequity and Unmet Dental Care Needs in Vulnerable Populations.”
As a clinician-researcher, Lyndal is passionate about bridging the gap between research and practice. Her research is centred around implementation science, with a focus on researching system readiness, outcomes, and contextual factors when implementing evidence-based practices, programs, or healthcare policies in aged care for long-term sustainability. The findings from her research will provide valuable insights for healthcare professionals, policymakers, and caregivers, facilitating the development of more effective and tailored oral health assessments for this vulnerable population.
