Excellence in research

Flagship projects

Australian Epilepsy Project

The Australian Epilepsy Project (AEP) is aiming to improve outcomes for people living with epilepsy by fast-tracking time from diagnosis to seizure control. Through advanced testing and artificial intelligence, the AEP creates advanced diagnostic tools, breaking down existing treatment silos to reduce the uncertainty of epilepsy care.

Young Stroke Service

Each day, 18 young Australians will have a stroke. The Young Stroke Service (YSS) team works with adults aged 18 to 55 who have had a stroke to access services to help their stroke recovery. The YSS can support with tests and therapy to help with memory and emotions, assisting with work and transport, and accessing peer support and information about strokes.
