He is the program head of Rhinology & Skull Base Surgery at the Applied Medical Research Center of UNSW and is Professor at both the University of NSW and Macquarie University.
Richard is one of Australia’s most successful academic surgeons. Richard practices in Sydney, Australia, as one of only a few dedicated rhinologists in the country. He has authored over 300 publications, books, book chapters and completed his PhD in trans-nasal skull base surgery.
Richard has a prolific career as a clinician researcher with a H-index over 60, which is an outstanding citation ranking for busy clinical surgeon in a niche field(1). Conjoint Professor Richard Harvey has been ranked as the top Australian researcher in otolaryngology in the past 4 years by The Research Special Report of The Australian newspaper(2). By any measure, Richard’s academic contribution is significant with inclusion in the Top 10 of all otolaryngology researchers in Australia and Top 100 researchers in the world(3). He also appears in Stanford’s list of Top 2% of scientists in the world(4, 5).
Richard has presented over 800 lectures and talks on sino-nasal disease management. He is the past Editor-in-chief of the Australian Journal of Otolaryngology (ww.w.TheAJO.com) as well as an associate editor for the Cochrane ENT disorders group currently and contributes to the editorial board for Rhinology Journal and other international journals. Prof Harvey is the current vice-president of the Australian & New Zealand Skull Base Society, past president of the Australian & New Zealand Rhinologic Society and the Australasian Academy of Facial Plastic Surgeons.
He is the recipient of the Australian Society of Otolaryngology Head & Neck Surgery Medal for Distinguished Contribution to the Art and Science of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, intended to recognize members providing outstanding OHNS services beyond their normal practice activities and the ESR Hughes Award from the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons for contributions to the profession. Along with training surgeons in both developed and emerging countries, Richard continues to run a series of courses in Sydney every year to further rhinologic education and training in Australia.
