Marie is a current clinical lecturer, PhD student, researcher and casual academic at the University of Sydney. She is also the chief investigator for the "Boost Project" investigating how hospitals can deliver more frequent exercise programs for inpatients with hip fracture through an implementation science study with physiotherapists and other healthcare workers.
