Dr Maryanne Mariyaselvam explains how her interest in patient safety innovation led her to pursue a different kind of medical career.
I saw a practical way to prevent adverse incidents.
Clinical practice is really important, but the work I wanted to do meant I had the chance to help patients and doctors around the world.
I had a feeling that I wanted something different, but I had to take a risk and figure out how to make it work.
I have had to work harder to progress and make my own luck, but I'm truly happy.
