Leading researchers from the Faculty of Health Sciences have:

• established understanding of long-term side effects of breast cancer treatments;
• realised the the potential of Information Communication Technology for health care;
• raised awareness of needs and issues of those with a disability and their families;
• improved professional practice and government policy for those with a disability and their families;
