Bigger, faster, better: enabling the next era of translational medical research

Keynote addresses were given by the Co-Deputy Chair of the Federal Government's National Genomics Futures Mission, Professor Kathryn North AM, and the Chair of Biomedical Translation Fund Committee at Innovation and Science Australia, Peter Wills.
   
Some of the issues affecting the translation of research into health systems - ethics and governance, consumer and community involvement, clinical trials capacity and data sharing and use - were tackled in lively discussion panels.

Sydney Health Partners' Executive Director, Professor Garry Jennings AO, summarised the collaborative success of Forum by telling the audience "I think today we learnt as much from you, as you did from us."
