Since 1915, the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute has been working to improve the health of the community. Based in Melbourne’s premier biomedical precinct, and with more than 850 brilliant scientific minds, the Institute is well positioned to accelerate the understanding, prevention and treatment of disease.
The Institute’s discoveries have helped 30 million people worldwide and there are more than 100 national and international clinical trials underway all of which originated from their research.
The outing provides us with the opportunity, for an hour, to learn more about medical science by touring the laboratories and talking direct with the scientists.
This is a tour we planned before Covid but we now have the opportunity.
After the tour for those interested with have lunch at a local cafe, and then afterwards can either visit the Victoria Market or the Hellenic Museum which is in the Mint Building in William Street.
The choice is up to the individual.
If you would like to join us we meet at the Sunbury Station at 9.00am to catch the 9.11am V/Line train to Footscray station, then we catch a bus to The Walter & Eliza Institute.
