The University of Queensland's Centre for Clinical Research (UQCCR) is a new $70M facility designed to bridge the gap between exponentially-expanding biomedical science and the increasing complexity of modern patient care. Our joint 'bench to bedside' and 'bedside to bench' focus addresses a critical area of unmet need in the early 21st century.

Our Research Focus

These four major research themes are linked by cross cutting themes in stem cell research and perinatal medicine.
