Keynote speakers Monash University Chancellor Mr Simon McKeon AO and National Health and Medical Research Council CEO Professor Anne Kelso AO attracted standing-room only audiences.

Professor Kelso spoke about the impact of medical research on improvements in health care and services, funding pressures on researchers and future changes to the NHMRC.  If you missed her presentation, Professor Kelso’s slides are HERE.
