Claudia Bull

I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Deakin University. I hold a Bachelor of Nutrition with First Class Honours (2017) and a PhD in Health Services Research from the Griffith University School of Nursing and Midwifery (2022). I also obtained a microcredential in Machine Learning from the NSW Institute of Applied Technology in 2025. My areas of research methodological expertise include:

1) Complex data analysis using large, linked, population-based administrative datasets.
2) Supervised machine learning (ML).
3) The development and psychometric evaluation of Patient-Reported Measures (PRMs).
4) Multi-methods research.

My primary area of research interest is child protection and welfare as it pertains to child abuse and neglect, child health and wellbeing, and child protection systems. I am also interested in equity, health outcomes, and patterns of health service use in vulnerable populations, including women in the perinatal period and individuals with severe mental illnesses.
