A new seven-storey tower at the Children’s Medical Research Institute (CMRI) at Westmead has been officially opened this week, cementing its place as a world leader in unlocking the secrets of childhood disease.
We have invested $20 million into this expansion, which has doubled the CMRI’s research capability by adding lab space for an extra 120 scientists.
This major boost to CMRI’s laboratory capacity will allow some of the State’s brightest minds to push the boundaries of medical and biological research further than ever before, bringing us closer to prevention, treatment and cures for some of the most devastating childhood diseases.
This state-of-the-art building will also allow NSW to attract and retain researchers of the highest calibre from around the nation and internationally.
