Preventative Health Flagship is working to improve the health and wellbeing of Australians through research into prevention and early detection of common chronic diseases.
The Preventative Health Flagship research covers prevention and early detection of chronic diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative diseases and heart disease.
We are involved in multi-disciplinary partnerships that bring together some of Australia's best minds to tackle Australia's health challenges. See some examples here.
