ACRF Centre for Therapeutic Target Discovery

A collaboration designed to maximise shared resources (both human and material) for the purpose of conducting highly innovative cancer research. Located on The Royal Melbourne Hospital - City Campus, the centre has resulted from growing recognition of the need for an integrated approach to cancer service delivery and basic, translational and clinical research. The consortium that launched the initial phase includes RMH (Melbourne Health), Royal Women's Hospital, Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research, Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research, and the University of Melbourne.

A new research centre will open at The Royal Melbourne Hospital - City Campus in 2011 to fast-track leukemia research projects from laboratory to hospital bedside. Established with a $1 million grant from the ACRF, the Centre will provide a seamless link between the Bone Marrow Research Laboratories and Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research, and The Royal Melbourne’s Diagnostic Haematology Laboratory and clinical services.

 

 

BioGrid Australia

Formerly known as Bio21: MMIM, BioGrid links data thereby creating a ‘grid’ of diverse data for research, planning and other services in health. It dynamically links data which includes dates of diagnosis, clinical symptoms, pathology, radiology reports, and availability of a biospecimen sample, genomic data, MRI images, treatments: drug therapy, radiotherapy and surgical status in a privacy protected way for authorised users.

Bio21 member Bio21 Cluster

Bio21 is a biomedical, biotechnology research cluster supporting collaborative projects, shared technology platforms, business development and education programs. The 21 members (including Melbourne Health) encompass Universities, Tertiary Health Services, Medical Research Institutes, CSIRO and other member-based organisations providing international strengths in biomedical research, education and healthcare.
