Dr Justine Camp recently completed a PhD developing a Māori health model for whānau across the lifespan and across generations, the first health model created by Kāi Tahu.
For her PhD, with Brain Research New Zealand, and supervised by Associate Professor Anne Marie Jackson (University of Otago), she created a whānau health compass in partnership with Master Navigators and with her Hapū from Puketeraki. She continues to work with Brain Research NZ, looking at Māori views on neurological disease and stimulation.
Justine’s career in research includes her Master’s degree which looked at the impact of type 2 diabetes on whānau and she has spent many years as a lecturer at the University of Otago and Otago Polytechnic.
