Dear Curtin Health Community,<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Welcome to the final Curtin Health Community eNewsletter<\/em> in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we reflect on an incredible year, we\u2019re filled with gratitude and pride. We celebrated remarkable milestones, including 60 years of Excellence in Psychology and 50 years in Nursing. The nursing alumni reunion was a heart-warming occasion to reconnect, cherish shared memories, and shine a light on the exciting future of nursing education at Curtin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our commitment to community engagement continued at the Telethon7 Family Festival, now in its fifth year. This vibrant event beautifully embodies the generosity and community spirit of Western Australians while championing child health research.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re also thrilled to honour the outstanding achievements of members of our faculty through various awards. These accolades are a testament to the passion and dedication of our researchers and staff, who strive to improve health and wellbeing locally and globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

None of this would be possible without your support. Your encouragement and belief in our mission helps drive innovative research, enhance student experiences, and contributes to making a difference in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you for being an integral part of our community. I wish you a joyful and healthy festive season and look forward to connecting with you in the New Year!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Warm regards,
Professor Carlo Marra<\/strong>
Pro Vice Chancellor, Faculty of Health Sciences<\/p>\n\n\n\n
