Coordinated by the Association of Australian Medical Research Institutes (AAMRI), the day is a national celebration of the “everyday heroes” of medical research — the scientists, clinicians, students, and support teams whose work changes lives.
For one day, more than 30 of Australia’s leading medical research institutes will come together, united by one shared goal: accelerating medical research through the generosity of their communities.
For the Lions Eye Institute, it’s an opportunity to shine a spotlight on the sight-saving research and patient care that is changing lives every day and to invite our community to be part of it.
