The National Health and Medical Research Council celebrates its 90th anniversary
Professor Caroline Homer
This year marks the 90th anniversary of Australia’s National Health and Medical Research Council.
From its official inception in the 1930s, the NHMRC has had a rich history from protecting Australia from diseases like polio and tuberculosis to making sure it backs high quality research that is ethical, rigorous and focused on community benefit.
"The MJA acknowledges the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the land on which we live and work across Australia. This podcast was recorded on the lands of the Wangal people. I pay my respects to their Elders past and present.”
The Council Chair of NHMRC, Professor Caroline Homer AO joins me on this podcast.
