Clinical Academic Groups

Our research networks draw from the strength of the Partnership to foster collaboration and develop new translational opportunities.

New Clinical Academic Group Scheme Launched

Sydney Health Partners believes that improving the translation of research evidence into sustained clinical practice requires more effective collaborations between researchers and clinicians. That’s why we are transitioning from our current structure of streams and themes to new Clinical Academic Groups (CAGs) - and supporting them with additional financial and other resources.

Groups of clinicians and translational researchers are now invited to apply to establish a Sydney Health Partners’ CAG.
