Celebrating 22 years of Australian Health and Medical Research Awards

The Research Australia Health and Medical Research Awards provide an exceptional opportunity to celebrate the outstanding talent within Australia’s health and medical research community. These prestigious awards honour the remarkable achievements of individuals and teams who drive innovation and advancements that enhance our lives.

We are pleased to announce that the combined 2025–26 Health & Medical Research Awards will be held on 20 August 2026 at the Sheraton Grand Sydney Hyde Park.

Research Australia is committed to recognising and celebrating the outstanding contributions of Australia’s health and medical research community, from discovery and innovation through to translation and commercialisation.

Award nominations are now open.

We couldn’t do this without the support of our generous partners, and we extend our heartfelt thanks for helping us celebrate both current and future research leaders.
