Senior Research Officer, Murdoch Children's Research Institute

Dr Sarah Gray is a Child Psychologist and Researcher, currently working within the Centre for Community Child Health at the Murdoch Children's Research Institute. In her current role as Project Manager of the Changing Children's Chances project, Sarah works in collaboration with policy makers to identify potential policy-sensitive pathways in early childhood to reduce inequities in children’s health, development and wellbeing. This project applies robust causal analytic methods to powerful nationally-representative existing data sources (e.g. the Longitudinal Study of Australian Children, the Australian Early Development Census, and the Person Level Integrated Data Asset). Sarah is interested in building the capacity for large-scale administrative and cohort data to improve our understanding of policy impact and drive more precise policy decision making to reduce inequities for Australia's children.
