Keynote speaker: Dr Noel Duncan of Sisu Health. Dr Duncan will speak about the rise in direct-to-consumer virtual care.

Noel holds a PhD in Muscle and Exercise Physiology from The University of Melbourne and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Penn State University (USA). Motivated by lifestyle behaviour change and health innovation, Noel founded SiSU Health in 2014. Prior to SiSU, Noel co-founded Fitness2live, establishing AUS, UK and USA operations before it was acquired by McKesson.
Noel’s extensive senior leadership experience also includes roles as the head of fitness & nutrition at leading AUS sporting organisations including the Collingwood and Richmond AFL teams.
