Translating Research Into Better Health Outcomes
Sydney Health Partners aims to deliver the benefits of research innovation to our patients and communities more quickly and consistently.
As a National Health and Medical Research Council-accredited Research Translation Centre, our partnership seeks to demonstrate that new evidence-based interventions can be successfully implemented and scaled-up in large and diverse health systems.
The applied research our Partners lead results in clinicians doing things differently in their daily work, and at every level of healthcare. Together we speed the journey of great ideas into better health outcomes.
