Our Research Translation Symposium provided Australia’s health and medical researchers an opportunity to learn and share experiences about research translation and to network with others.

From 2012, NHMRC held 9 symposia - each focused on a different theme:

  • October 2012 - Putting research translation on the national health and medical research agenda
  • October 2013 - From Bench to Bourke
  • November 2014 - Achieving better health outcomes for Australians living with chronic conditions through more effective research translation
  • October 2015 - Policy and Research: Working together to improve the health of Australians
  • November 2016 - Embedding research into health care: building a culture of quality
  • November 2017 - The Butterfly Effect: Translating Knowledge into Action for Positive Change
  • November 2018 - Ensuring value in research
  • November 2019 - Research Translation in the digital age: harnessing the power of data and analytical technologies
  • November 2022 - Embracing Diversity.

After a decade of delivering a Research Translation Symposium, NHMRC will no longer host an annual symposium.

We sincerely thank our stakeholders for their interest, input and attendance over the years.
