TRI-based Professor Kristen Radford from Mater Research is leading development of new preclinical research models that are core to TRI’s new Human Immune Model Facility, the first of its kind in Australia, to accelerate the speed and accuracy of preclinical drug development.
A team of TRI-based researchers is developing theranostic agents that combine diagnostic imaging with targeted therapy to treat difficult cancers such as ovarian, pancreatic and bladder cancer by targeting specific proteins enriched on cancer cells, enabling precise detection and treatment, and minimising damage to healthy tissues.
With over 1000 researchers and more than 20 industry organisations based at TRI, there are many important breakthroughs and developments that happen here in the field of translational research every day.
