Now is the time to join the Research Australia Alliance

In the current policy intense environment, Research Australia is working with the university, institute, industry and services sector to highlight the importance of research in generating solutions to health care and systems. Increasingly we are focused on Australia in the nationally competitive research environment. Our challenge is to secure a continued commitment to research to contribute to improvements in both national and global health, and to meet the challenges of the globalised, competitive research and innovation environment.

With the economic crisis adversely impacting on the capacity of the not-for-profit sector, we need your support now more than ever.

We have a range of membership options available, and would be happy to discuss your membership level with you.
