Sarah McNab is a general paediatrician and the Director of General Medicine at The Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne. She holds honorary appointments with Murdoch Children’s Research Institute (where she completed a Clinician Scientist Fellowship) and The University of Melbourne. Sarah’s PhD research compared intravenous fluids in children and helped lead international practice change. She subsequently founded CIRCAN (Children’s Inpatient Research Collaboration of Australia and New Zealand), a 42-hospital network conducting multicentre clinical trials to improve general paediatric inpatient care and outcomes.
