Synopsis of publication:

In 1998, the Commonwealth Minister for Health and Aged Care commissioned a comprehensive review of the state of Australian health and medical research. The Health and Medical Research Strategic Review (the 'Review') identified the challenges and obstacles to maintaining Australia's world class research capacity, and the areas requiring attention to secure a vibrant and responsive health and medical research environment into the future.

The report of the Review, The Virtuous Cycle - Working together for health and medical research, made far-reaching recommendations on various aspects of health and medical research. The Government referred 56 specific recommendations for National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) action.

Since the Review, the NHMRC has made many changes to the way it fulfils its role as the nation's peak supporter of health and medical research, in direct response to the issues raised by the Review. Specific areas of NHMRC activity include:

  • Research Outcome Evaluation
  • Reinforcing the Research Funding System
  • World Class Research Capacity
  • Priority Driven Research
  • Translation of Research into Policy and Practice
  • Effective Health Ethics Review System
  • Community Participation
  • Technology Transfer and Research Commercialisation
  • International Cooperation
  • Office of the NHMRC
