Australia’s #MedicalResearch workforce is under increasing pressure. New data shows more than 60% of researchers have left active roles since 2019. Stronger, sustained investment is essential to retain talent and support discovery. #HealthResearch

Stronger coordination and collective impact models can help reduce fragmentation across health research policy and drive better innovation outcomes. researchaustralia.org/response-to-th… #HealthResearch #MedicalResearch

Stronger strategy, coordination and investment are needed to unlock the full potential of the #MRFF Missions Program. Releasing the full $1.1B available and embedding clear outcomes will drive real impact across Australia’s research ecosystem. researchaustralia.org/response-to-th…

An important update for the research community in NSW: the revised NSW Health Research Handbook is now available, supporting stronger governance, guidance and collaboration across the sector. @MedResearchNSW #HealthResearch #MedicalResearch #NSW medicalresearch.nsw.gov.au/about/news/202…

Australia’s productivity challenge is also a health challenge. Stronger investment in #HealthResearch and #MedicalResearch supports workforce participation, innovation and long-term economic growth. @ResAustralia pharmadispatch.com/news/research-…

Medical information is best when it comes from clinicians - researchers and medical professionals. AI can be an empowering too, but only when combined with real scientific and medical investigation, led by a professional. #healthresearch #AI bbc.com/news/articles/…

How is the Medical Research Future Fund supporting research to improve the health of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people? A new @ausgov report is out. #FirstNations #MRFF #medicalresearch health.gov.au/resources/publ…

Have you caught @ResAustralia's 2025-26 Pre #Budget Submission? We're calling on @ausgov to lift #R&D spending, focus on building up workforce capability, and invest in a whole‑of‑system #funding approach. Read the full submission here: researchaustralia.org/pre-budget-sub…

We need to do better for Australia. Fund underspent even as its value rises, as payouts are curbed and grant success rates fall. @ResAustralia will keep pushing for smarter investment for our sector. #HealthResearch #SystemReform researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-austra…

Great to see growing support for #HealthResearch and investment across #Regional, #Rural and #Remote Australia, following @ResAustralia’s 2025 report on advancing medical research beyond major cities. medicalresearch.nsw.gov.au/clinical-trial…

Does location matter? Can co-location of health research organisations improve outcomes and accelerate scientific progress? A great example is Sydney’s St Vincent’s Health Innovation Precinct. #HealthResearch #MedicalResearch #Innovation medicalresearch.nsw.gov.au/about/news/202…
