Madhini Sivasubramanian

My teaching focuses on nursing, professional practice and clinical skills.

My research interests centre on the care of children with the rare genetic disorder congenital hyperinsulinism. This is a condition that affects the pancreas, causing it to produce too much insulin.

I am also interested in the research of Nursing and Public Health Higher Education and simulation teaching.
