Making a difference
Passionate palliative care researcher, Professor Samar Aoun, has received the Western Australia 2023 Australian of the Year Award.
As the Perron Institute Research Chair in Palliative Care at The University of Western Australia, she is a highly respected international research leader who champions a community-centred role in end-of-life care and bereavement support.
On receiving the award, Professor Aoun said she hopes it encourages more people to have courageous conversations about death, dying and grief – it happens to everyone – so it’s important that we support each other along the journey.
