The MRFF was designed to deliver $1B annually, but only $650M is being allocated. Researchers are calling on the Aus Govt to restore full funding in the 2026–27 budget. It takes 2 seconds to add your voice: aamri.org.au/mrff/

Lost funding = stalled projects + lost jobs + delayed breakthroughs.
Half the Funding. Half the Future. - AAMRI
The Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF) was designed to deliver $1 billion each year in new, lifesaving funding for medical research. We know through financial modelling that the full amount can be re...

Mental health is not separate from academic work. It shapes how we learn, engage, and grow. We need to foster a research culture that supports both progress and the wellbeing of those driving it.

A special visitor hopped into the Centre for Cancer Biology today! The Easter Bunny made a surprise stop with chocolate treats and a delicious morning tea featuring hot cross buns.

A fun and festive break for the team!

Great episode from the #SocietyforMucosalImmunology podcast feat. Cecilia Johansson (ImperialCollegeLondon) on respiratory infections.

A reminder that often what we observe in the lab is just one moment in a complex & continuous interplay of events.
