BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH CENTRE

Fast-tracking scientific discovery into better health outcomes

The SBA seeks to support innovative research, translation and commercialisation by fast-tracking scientific discovery into better health outcomes. It will do this by bringing together multidisciplinary teams that facilitate research insights into commercialisation of diagnostics, treatments and changes to health care delivery. Our researchers will tackle some of the world’s most complex health challenges including cancer, vision, cardiac and neurodegenerative diseases.
