The Foundation recognised and celebrated some of the exceptional people and projects being funded in 2019, at a dinner held on 4 March 2019.
The evening provided a wonderful opportunity for the Foundation to seek feedback that will help us continue to contribute in an impactful way to Australian Medical Research. It was also a pleasure to see many researchers make new connections.
Awards were presented to the 2019 Al & Val Rosenstrauss Fellowship recipient, Dr Andy Philp, and the highest ranked Project Grant applicants in each field of support..
