Course Development Director
Heather Grain has been recognised for her extensive career, with international expertise in the development, implementation, management and governance of digital health systems and data.

A Fellow of the Australasian Institute of Digital Health, the impact of Heather’s contributions to digital health is in providing pragmatic improvements to the safety and quality of data throughout health care. She is one of very few people who fully understands the relationship between health concept representation formalisms and the various technologies associated with data capture, transfer, linking, mapping and use. Heather is an expert in writing standards regarding health information use in digital environments to ensure data accuracy following health data exchange. She provides leadership in many countries to assist a more practical digital health development focused on the future, not just for today, from assisting the Jamaican Ministry of Health to implement their digital ecosystem, to greatly influencing the standards community to integrate Traditional Chinese Medicine terminology with Western health terminology.
