Rate My Professor Laura Joyce

Dr. Joyce's research focuses on emergency medicine, medical education, simulation, high-sensitivity cardiac troponin testing for acute coronary syndrome rule-out, biomarker translation into clinical practice, trauma outcomes, and paediatric emergency presentations. Key publications include 'Twenty-six years of machine learning for ECG: and we are not there yet' (2023), 'Ruling out acute myocardial infarction based on a single high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I at presentation to the emergency department' (2023, Journal of Laboratory and Precision Medicine), 'Determination of Clinically Acceptable Analytical Variation of High-Sensitivity Cardiac Troponin I' (2024, Clinical Chemistry), 'Improving Care with the First measurement of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I in patients presenting with possible acute coronary syndrome' (2025), 'Evaluation of a virtual emergency care service to avoid unnecessary ED presentations' (2023, Emergency Medicine Australasia), and 'Paediatric exploratory ingestion presentations to Christchurch Hospital ED' (2021, New Zealand Medical Journal). She co-authored the ICare-FASTER protocol for faster risk-stratification in emergency care. Dr. Joyce received a Heart Foundation Small Project Grant in 2024 for piloting remote monitoring in atrial fibrillation patients. She presented the keynote 'Finding Your Why' at the New Zealand Medical Students' Association Conference (2025) and serves on the Research Advisory Committee of the Australasian College for Emergency Medicine.
