Strategic direction
Making a positive impact
We believe that everyone has a stake in health and medical research. Our scientific research and translation of discoveries into knowledge and treatments changes people’s lives through improved physical and mental health and wellbeing.
The Florey has an opportunity to re-imagine the way government, medical research organisations and industry partners collaborate, solve problems and innovate together to create real and lasting value for current and future generations.
We are committed to being a leader in our ecosystem and improving the world in which we live, work and play.
