La Trobe University researchers will advance knowledge of transplant cure rates for Hodgkin Lymphoma, therapy for thyroid cancer, and other fields, thanks to $5.97 million awarded to the University in the latest round of the Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF).
Four La Trobe research projects will share in funding from the scheme which aims to transform health and medical research and innovation to improve lives, build the economy and contribute to health system sustainability.
La Trobe University Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research and Industry Engagement) Professor Susan Dodds is thrilled with La Trobe’s success.
“La Trobe researchers are focused on improving lives and health outcomes of people around the world. This funding enables our researchers together with clinical partners to advance their understanding and develop treatments and therapies for diseases like cancer, which affect so many individuals and families,” Professor Dodds said.
