University of Queensland researchers have secured almost $31 million from the Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF) to tackle health and medical challenges in Australia and around the world.
The 21 夜色视频 projects include research to improve the quality of life for people with dementia and their carers, support parents of children with neurodevelopmental disabilities, and reduce hospital re-admissions for high-risk cardiology patients.
