Our research strategy

Our research strategy sets out a plan for thriving in this new era. Explore our visions, aspirations, and priorities for FHMRI for 2024 - 2029 and beyond.

This is an exciting time for FHMRI. In 2024, with a new leadership group, the Institute structure was reshaped to clearly define our strengths, and the Health and Medical Research Building (HMRB) will springboard the Institute into an era of accelerated collaboration, discovery and impact. 

Research Strategy 2024 - 2029

Our locations

We have Australia’s widest network of remote and rural campuses and community partnerships, extending from Mt Gamier to Adelaide in South Australia and from Alice Springs and Katherine to Darwin in the Northern Territory.

Our main campus is in Bedford Park in Adelaide. It is positioned in the centre of the Flinders’ Health Precinct and is co-located with Flinders Medical Centre teaching hospital and Flinders Private Hospital. This co-location of University and Hospital researchers, scientists and clinicians facilitates collaborative research which is focused on improving the health of individual patients and the community more broadly with less delay.
