More information
The Institute is the leading group focused on infectious diseases, immunology and cancer in Australia and the region. Its major areas of research and public health activities are infectious diseases of global significance such as HIV, hepatitis, measles, malaria, tuberculosis and avian influenza, and cancers such as breast, ovarian and prostate cancer. The key focus of the Institute is to make a sustainable difference to people’s health in Australia and around the world by developing practical outcomes. Much of the work of Burnet assists socially marginalized groups by tackling tough problems: HIV and AIDS, sexually transmitted infections, hepatitis, and illicit drug use.
