About us
Effective medication management is a vital element of every patient's treatment plan. The Centre for Medicine Use and Safety (CMUS) delivers innovative research to optimise health outcomes for individuals and communities throughout Australia and around the world.
CMUS delivers timely, quality research by combining key components of our expertise with a diverse array of collaborators. This ensures the context and application of our work is relevant to health in the real world. Our ultimate goal is to optimise the safe and effective use of medicine.
Based at the Monash Parkville campus and the pharmacy department of The Alfred Hospital, CMUS integrates academic and applied research to address medicine use and safety issues. This includes research in the community, hospitals, residential aged care settings and their interfaces.
