Congratulations to Shayne Chau on his ANZAHPE Associate Fellowship!

Mr Shayne Chau is a Senior Lecturer in Diagnostic Radiography at Charles Sturt University, based in Wagga Wagga. He also holds adjunct senior appointments at the University of Canberra (UA), University of Exeter (UK) and Vin University (VN). Shayne is a Fellow of the Australian Society of Medical Imaging and Radiation Therapy (ASMIRT) and the Higher Education Academy (UK), and an Associate Fellow of HERDSA. His professional background spans clinical radiography in both public and private sectors, research, governance, and higher education leadership. He has authored multiple peer-reviewed publications, book chapters, and international conference presentations in radiography, oncology, neuroimaging, and education.

Shayne’s scholarly work focuses on diagnostic radiography education, patient-centred care, and emerging technologies in medical imaging. His research covers areas such as scan-associated distress in oncology, gamification in radiography education, artificial intelligence in imaging, and neuroimaging biomarkers in Parkinson’s disease. He is also actively engaged in collaborative projects that address rural health challenges, clinical placement capacity, and strategies to strengthen the radiography workforce.

"I applied for the ANZAHPE Associate Fellowship to connect with like-minded educators who are committed to advancing health professional education across disciplines. My interest lies in contributing to conversations around innovation in curriculum design, assessment, and student engagement, while also learning from the diverse expertise of colleagues across the health professions. I see the Fellowship as a platform to share my own work, broaden my collaborations, and support ANZAHPE’s role in shaping the future of health education."
