Together We Advance Life-saving Research

Since 1985, the RBWH Foundation has championed and fostered world-leading medical and clinician research and innovation at the Herston Health Precinct (HHP). Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, the RBWH Foundation has been able to invest more than $3-million into life-saving research again in 2021.

These funds have helped launch research careers, enabled experienced researchers to add to their growing body of knowledge around disease and illness, and provided Fellowships across many areas of RBWH.

We thank our valued supporters for entrusting us to distribute funding where it is most needed.

Research in all its forms - discovery, innovation, translation, implementation, and evaluation - is the engine room of a healthy and vibrant health service and is woven into the fabric of what we do.
