About

Dr Tanya Langtree is an experienced academic who has taught and coordinated a broad range of nursing subjects at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Tanya is also a registered nurse whose specialties include neurosciences and critical care nursing. She is also a co-author of a well regarded Australian foundational nursing textbook.  

Tanya was awarded her PhD cum laude in 2020. Her PhD study, Notes on pre Nightingale Nursing: What It Was and What It Was Not, examined pre-professionalised nursing praxis using postmodernist historical methods. The findings of this study reconceptualised pre-Nightingale nursing practice and were used to reframe popular metanarratives about past and contemporary nursing practice.

Tanya is a peer reviewer for a number of international refereed journals, nursing textbooks and learning resources.
