St George and Sutherland Medical Research Foundation – Grant Recipients

Mr MARK COURE (Oatley)

—Speaker, I rise to recognise the medical grant recipients, whose efforts were celebrated recently at the St George & Sutherland Medical Research Foundation celebration dinner. It was wonderful to be able to attend this annual end-of-year celebration dinner, to recognise these local champions of innovation, who continue to display exceptional talent and commitment. I would like to highlight the fact that there is some valuable work being done at local hospitals within our area, including St George Hospital. Medical research is constantly changing the lives of those within my community, and I am so proud of each and every grant recipient. Many of them are making enormous strides in a number of fields, including treatments, vaccinations, cancer research, surgical procedures and so many more. I would like to thank the Chief Executive of the Foundation, Pam Brown, for her continued efforts. I would also like to congratulate all of the grant recipients who have received funding. I wish you all the very best into the future, and I look forward to seeing more valuable medical research being undertaken within my local community.
