2016 Annual Report

The 2016 Annual Report showcases an exciting year of scientific and organisational activity at the Institute.

Several key research advances shed light on fundamental biological processes, moving us closer to better health outcomes for patients. Among these are:

• a potential new approach to breast cancer in women who carry the BRCA1 gene
• using the genome sequence of the scabies and malaria parasites to identify potential new treatment approaches
• study of cone snail venom to inform more efficient therapies for diabetes

2015 Annual Report

"If one message came from our researchers and our supporters in 2015, it was that there is great optimism and hope for all that the Institute can achieve in its second century," Institute director Professor Doug Hilton

This past year has seen advances in understanding how malaria persists in populations, the development of potential new treatments for cancers, and new insights into immune disorders, including immunodeficiencies, allergies and coeliac disease.

2014 Annual Report

This report covers only six months due to the change in financial year, to better align the Institute with the government grant cycle.

This year, in consultation with staff, students, supporters and collaborators, we have been developing a new five-year strategic plan that will follow on from our current plan, guiding our operations from 2015 to 2020.

Our researchers have made many exciting research breakthroughs this year, and have been duly rewarded with notable prizes and competitive grants.
