Joanna HikakaDoctoral candidate"After 15 years working primarily as a clinician, I have loved the opportunity to undertake further research within the PhD programme. I have valued the time and space to rethink how we work as pharmacists and to learn new methods and techniques to be more systematic in my approach to research. "I feel very privileged to have been invited into kaumātua hui and to sit down and discuss in depth the issues whānau have with medicines, and think about how pharmacy services can respond to these needs and help to eliminate health inequities. I am also grateful to my supervisory team, as well as other academic staff, for the generous way they share their knowledge and give their time. After completing my PhD, I would love to continue to be involved in research that supports kaumātua and to also support the development of other researchers. "I am enrolled part-time in my PhD, which allows me flexibility to continue with some clinical work, as well as being there for my family, including my young children."
