To improve the respiratory and sleep health of all Australians through: research, education, prevention, care.

The Woolcock Institute of Medical Research is one of Australia's leading respiratory and sleep research organisations. Our aim is to foster, develop and promote research into the fields of respiratory and sleep medicine. With a world-class network of specialised researchers, we deal with the causes, prevention, diagnosis and treatment of respiratory disease and sleep disorders. In the words of Professor Jeffrey Drazen, Professor of Medicine, Harvard University and Editor-in-Chief of the New England Journal of Medicine, the Woolcock is one of the top six such institutes world-wide.
