Uq Queensland Brain Institute
The Queensland Brain Institute, at The University of Queensland, works to understand the development, organisation and function of the brain. We aim to understand the neural circuits in the brain, how their function results in behavioural outcomes, and how dysfunction of these circuits leads to disorders such as dementia, Parkinson’s disease and schizophrenia. We aim to: 1. Develop novel therapeutic approaches to treat disorders of neural function and 2. Use our understanding of brain function to improve learning in classrooms and in the workplace. Currently led by Professor Pankaj Sah, the Institute has achieved remarkable success in just 10 years. We have published more than 1200 papers and the quality of work produced by our 450+ staff and students. It is QBI's excellence in the field that has played a key role in The University of Queensland (UQ) attaining the highest possible score of five for neuroscience,"well above world standard", in both the 2010, 2012 and 2015 Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) reviews, one of only two universities in Australia to achieve this. In collaborations with clinicians and commercial partners, new discoveries are used as the basis to develop new therapeutic approaches to ameliorate the effects of brain diseases such as dementia, schizophrenia, motor neurone disease (MND), and anxiety and depression. To focus on important areas, QBI has established several Institute Centres: • The Science of Learning Research Centre (SLRC) • The Clem Jones Centre for Ageing Dementia Research (CJCADR) • The Asia-Pacific Centre for Neuromodulation (APCN)

Anzup Cancer Trials Group Limited
Welcome to the Australian and New Zealand Urogenital and Prostate (ANZUP) Cancer Trials Group. Our mission is to conduct clinical trial research to improve treatment of bladder, kidney, testicular, penile and prostate cancers. Funded by Cancer Australia ANZUP is a cancer cooperative clinical trials group, established to bring together all the professional disciplines and groups involved in researching and treating urogenital cancers. We saw a gap and a need for an organisation able to perform clinical trials based on the best science and with clear input from Australian and New Zealand researchers and the general community. ANZUP was established in 2008 and has clearly demonstrated its value and promise by performing investigator-initiated clinical trials, developed by our members, both nationally and internationally across the range of genitourinary cancers. We continue to build on our impressive multidisciplinary membership while developing very strong relationships with other NGO’s such as Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia, CanSpeak, Cancer Councils, the national cancer cooperative trials groups, COSA, Kidney Health Australia as well as Government and Industry. We collaborate with the NHMRC Clinical Trials Centre at the University of Sydney on a number of ANZUP studies. Through ANZUP and our research collaborations we are able to encourage participation of clinicians and researchers in the development, conduct, evaluation, and promotion of clinical trials and translate research outcomes into future clinical practice to improve health outcomes and the quality of life for our patients. Membership of ANZUP is open to anyone holding the ideals of ANZUP and working in the field of cancer care or cancer research in a professional capacity. In particular we would like to encourage trainees in the various clinical and scientific disciplines to join and to participate in the scientific and strategic development of ANZUP. Please refer to our website.

Arc Centre Of Excellence In Optical Microcombs For Breakthrough Science Combs
Our team at the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence in Optical Microcombs for Breakthrough Science (COMBS) is using technology – called the optical frequency comb – to drive society-wide transformations in the fields of biomedical imaging, communications, precision measurement and astronomy. Optical frequency combs are still generally confined to the most advanced science labs due to their size and complexity, however our team at COMBS aims to transform these systems into light-powered chips the size of a fingernail. We will do this through partnering with scientific and industrial end-users to create new approaches and solutions in the biomedical imaging, communications, precision measurement and astronomy. This Centre is funded by the Australian Government through the Australian Research Council.
