This report, which outlines the research achievements within the Northern Sydney Local Health District, is now available. The SERT Institute is proud to be one of these initiatives [See Link]. One of our initiatives includes the publication of the inaugural Surgical Research Activity Report — a collation of research conducted and published across the RNSH Departments of Surgery from January 2018- June 2020. This report highlights the large volume of research activity and peer-reviewed publications conducted during this period, with almost 350 manuscripts published, equating to an average of 138 publications annually. The volume of research undertaken by our surgeons underscores the extent to which research is embedded in our clinical work [See Link].
