Foundations

Medical research is increasingly expensive. However, with the generous support of our benefactors, the Sydney Medical School is able to pursue exciting new areas of investigation.

Through the Foundations associated with the Sydney Medical School members of the community, professions and organisations provide the Medical School with many hours of unpaid assistance. We are extremely grateful for this level of support and the hard work of our friends and colleagues in this endeavour.

The research work of the Medical School is supported by a number of Foundations. These include:
