Precision Cancer Medicine
The Precision Cancer Medicine Theme investigates why people respond differently to diseases and therapies, to deliver the most effective and targeted treatment options.
Our cancer researchers are committed to understanding the factors that determine patient-specific responses to disease or therapeutic intervention, enabling us to better predict patient outcomes, to stratify patients to the best treatment options and to develop more personalised, targeted interventions.
Theme members are embedded within Adelaide’s biomed precinct with established collaborative relationships across the co-located Royal Adelaide Hospital, and the nearby Women’s and Children’s Hospital, which is key to achieving translational research capabilities, supported by access to world-class research facilities.
Theme Leader
SAHMRI is located on Kaurna Country. We pay respects to the Kaurna people of the Adelaide Plains and to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. We are committed to embracing knowledge and culture as we continue our working journey to incorporate Aboriginal health research across all of our themes and further reconciliation.
