Research agenda

• Our research agenda is backed by strong links to researchers in Metro North Hospital and Health Service, Queensland Children’s Hospital, Mater Health Services, Queensland Institute for Medical Research, Griffith University, Queensland University of Technology and The University of Queensland.
• These links will continue to play pivotal roles in developing and delivering our research strategy, plans and outcomes.

Digital health service

• As Australia’s first digital health service, we are uniquely positioned at the forefront of healthcare innovation and technology.
• Through our fully electronic medical record, researchers now have access to rich clinical data from across our facilities and services, and clinicians have access to research study information at the point of care.

Our commitment

• We are committed to ensuring all research conducted within our facilities, or in collaboration with external entities, is of the highest ethical and scientific standard, and is undertaken in a manner that provides the best outcomes for our consumers, our community, our researchers and our organisation.
• Metro South Health has a strong history of research achievements, outstanding facilities and resources, strong partnerships, and world-leading technology. This provides an ideal research environment to bring research ideas to fruition, ultimately for the benefit of our community.
