Mahsa Lotfizadeh holds a Bachelor of Arts and Sciences (with majors in media and communications, and sociology) and a Masters of International Public Health from the University of Sydney.

Mahsa has local and international experience in health communication, and is particularly interested in women's health, and health policy.

In 2010 she completed a three-month research project on maternal health at the World Health Organisation (WHO) in Geneva, where she also worked closely with health clinicians and policy advisors to develop communication strategies for promoting women's health.

Mahsa has successfully implemented health awareness and fundraising campaigns for not-for-profit and government organisations, and has experience researching and communicating health topics, using traditional and new forms of media.

She appreciates the complexities of healthcare and medical research, and draws on her scientific training at University to engage individuals, communities, and policy makers, to convey research-based health messages with creativity.

Mahsa enjoys all aspects of health and wellbeing – from liaising with medical researchers to participating in weekend sports – and feels strongly about informing and motivating wider audiences on the emerging issues in healthcare.
