Our people
Our people
Our research excellence is a reflection of the people behind it. We have more than 120 group leaders who are world experts in their field, in addition to several hundred talented researchers and postgraduate students. We are the only Australian research body to focus on so many global health priorities in one location.
Search for researchers with primary affiliation to:
Cancer | Cardiovascular Disease | Development & Stem Cell
Infection & Immunity | Metabolism, Diabetes & Obesity | Neuroscience
Please note: each of our Group Leaders will belong to one or more of our six health-focused Discovery Programs, and will also be a member of a discipline-specific Department.
