New method to assist fast-tracking of vaccines for pre-clinical tests

Western Sydney University, CSIRO and the University of Sydney have all made significant commitments to the Westmead Health Precinct, while research capacity is also growing rapidly at Blacktown, Auburn and Mount Druitt.

For the first time in Australia, researchers at The Westmead Institute for Medical Research (WIMR), along with their clinical colleagues at Westmead Hospital, have performed normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) on donated kidneys. Now, as part of a clinical trial, kidneys treated with NMP have been successfully transplanted into patients.

HRI has won ‘Best Workplace 2020’ for providing an exceptional work environment for staff, awarded by consultancy firm Voice Project.
