This website is currently being reviewed.
The Mater Research Support
Centre (MRSC) was formed following a workshop in February 2003 on how research
activities on the Mater Campus could be enhanced. A small budget was
allocated and the staff working in the Centre for Clinical Studies (CCS) of
Mater Mothers' Hospital were incorporated into the MRSC. Prof Allan Chang
was appointed the Director.
The MRSC Team commenced work
in July 2003. Very quickly we had quite a number of people seeking advice from
our staff, as well as inviting them to join collaborating projects.
The main thrust of our
activities to date, however, has been towards building an infra-structure of
resources and communication to enable us to provide effective assistance to the
Mater community, when required.
As MRSC will undergo
continuing development in the near future, we anticipate that there will be
many changes and that our resources will increase. We intend, therefore, to put
a newsletter up at intervals to update the Mater community on the new
developments that have occurred and other facilities and services that have
become available.
