Close collaboration and linkage with Concord Repatriation General Hospital

A key feature of the ANZAC Research Institute has always been our close linkage to Concord Hospital. As the medical research institute for a major teaching hospital, each of our major research groups are led by individuals heading or closely affiliated with Concord Hospital departments.

These strong, organic connections ensure our research is closely aligned with the priorities in understanding health and disease on which to base improvements in medical practice. In the most enlightened way, this mandate drives the most appropriate research covering from basic discovery science to applied science in clinical, translational, public health and health services research.

Such a tight integration of active medical research is the most reliable guarantee of the highest standards of health and medical care in any modern major hospital. A medical research institute with high academic standing serves a Hospital by attracting top academic physicians, researchers and trainees from around the country and overseas.
