Jack, a PhD candidate at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) and Neuroscience Research Australia, works within the Centre for Pain IMPACT. His research focuses on enhancing evidence-based management of phantom limb pain, particularly through the MRFF-funded TITAN randomised clinical trial, the largest trial in Australia testing treatments for this condition. His work aims to develop effective management strategies for phantom limb pain that can be integrated into everyday clinical practice.

Jack is interested in clinical trial methodology and the practical application of research in healthcare settings. His candidature involves mixed methods approaches, including process evaluation and mediation analysis, to ensure research outcomes from clinical trials can be effectively interpreted and translated into interventions that benefit individuals with chronic pain conditions. He co-chairs the social engagement portfolio at the Centre for Pain IMPACT, organising events to foster communication and outreach of the centre’s research to the broader research and consumer community.

Jack, an Accredited Exercise Physiologist at the UNSW Fatigue Clinic, assists individuals coping with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Post-Cancer Fatigue, Post-Viral Fatigue, and Long COVID. His clinical work enables him to use evidence-based methods and PhD expertise to enhance patients' quality of life.

Jack also serves as a Higher Degree Research Representative on the UNSW University Research Committee. In this role, he contributes to the university's research strategy, focusing on quality and integrity, overseeing research operations, recommending policies, addressing issues from the Academic Board, managing research risks, and performing delegated functions from the council.

 Jack is committed to improving the integration of research into clinical practice, particularly for those with chronic health conditions.
