Researcher, Emerging Minds, NSW

Dr Melinda Goodyear has over 20 years of experience working as an implementation scientist and researcher in the area of intergenerational vulnerability in families.

She currently holds two positions: Senior Research Fellow at Monash University; and Manager, Research and Evaluation, Emerging Minds (www.emergingminds.com.au).
