Menzies School of Health Research

While we take a multidisciplinary approach to research, for management purposes MSHR has two research programs and an education program. One research program covers social determinants of health, health services, environmental health, alcohol and other drugs and chronic disease (diabetes, cardiovascular, renal and respiratory disease). The other research program covers infectious disease. Specific areas of interest in the infectious disease program include ear disease, scabies, malaria, melioidosis, streptococcal and pneumococcal infections.
MSHR is established as the leading health research institution in Northern Australia and we are now seeking to strengthen collaborative links in our research and teaching programs with a variety of other institutions. We have an excellent facility and staff, and have developed strong relationships with local government, non-government and community stakeholders.
