S1 Ep 6: Looking at the Bigger Picture with Dr. Claire Palermo

The Pantry Party

Episode 6 brings you a chat to our former lecturer Claire Palermo. Claire has played a huge role in shaping how we both want to practice dietetics, planting the seed of the importance of social determinants of health and how to work in that capacity from day dot in our degrees.

In this episode we chat about some not-so-typical nutrition and dietetic things, such as flexibility within the dietetic curriculum in universities and how Claire is working towards future-proofing the dietetic profession, how flexible dietetic programs are actually are, and most importantly - how Claire started as a dietitian and has now become an associate professor!
