Research centres
Collaborative and multidisciplinary research
Our three University approved research centres bring together a number of leading scholars from multiple disciplines, all focused on improving the quality of life of individuals and families who experience impairment, injury, illness, chronic health conditions and disability.
Each of our centres adds to the collective quality and impact of our research, in line with government priorities for 'promoting and maintaining good health'.
