Summary
Interdisciplinary Network for Aquatic Animal Health. The value of Australian fisheries and aquaculture is increasing significantly and, whilst this has resulted in an increase in R&D spending in the area, stifled collaboration amongst isolated scientists sometimes results in slow research progress. This network will enhance research on aquatic animal health. Our main aim is to provide a stimulating environment, encourage collaboration and ensure fast flow of interdisciplinary information between ....Interdisciplinary Network for Aquatic Animal Health. The value of Australian fisheries and aquaculture is increasing significantly and, whilst this has resulted in an increase in R&D spending in the area, stifled collaboration amongst isolated scientists sometimes results in slow research progress. This network will enhance research on aquatic animal health. Our main aim is to provide a stimulating environment, encourage collaboration and ensure fast flow of interdisciplinary information between researchers. We will adapt methods and technologies from medical research and other disciplines to increase our understanding of aquatic animal health and at the same time ensure that our results are applied in other disciplines.Read moreRead less

Summary
Australian Initiative for Malaria (AIM). Malaria is a major global health problem with 500 million people infected and 2-3 million deaths per year. Australia has an extraordinary capacity in malaria research publishing more papers per capita than any other country. The Australian Initiative for Malaria will weld this critical mass into a stronger and more cohesive unit better able to capitalise on new developments in malaria research and will allow us to tackle the enormous problem malaria pre ....Australian Initiative for Malaria (AIM). Malaria is a major global health problem with 500 million people infected and 2-3 million deaths per year. Australia has an extraordinary capacity in malaria research publishing more papers per capita than any other country. The Australian Initiative for Malaria will weld this critical mass into a stronger and more cohesive unit better able to capitalise on new developments in malaria research and will allow us to tackle the enormous problem malaria presents to our region. We will integrate our research expertise with regional laboratories in PNG, E Timor, Solomon Is, Indonesia and Thailand.Read moreRead less
