How we are a research intensive organisation

Research leadership

Our community fosters support and development for early and mid-career researchers to cultivate break-through discoveries, collaboration and research capacity.

Our clinical trials and translational research support data-informed care in our hospitals.

This builds an agile, responsive and contemporary healthcare system that implements modern technology in how we care for children.

State-of-the-art facilities

Our high performing research environment is facilitated by our streamlined processes, governance, system infrastructure and modern facilities.

We host dedicated clinical research spaces, including our Clinical Research Centres, Paediatric Gait Analysis Lab and science laboratories.

Partnerships

Our global and local partnerships with universities, research institutions and clinical services, accelerate research and support collaboration.
