international partnerships

We have formed formal partnerships with two leading paediatric hospitals in the USA - Cincinnati Children's Hospital and the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP).

Cincinatti Children's Hospital: We commenced a research exchange program between our two campuses to give scientists from both organisations the opportunity to share knowledge and learn new skills. In 2011, the exchange will involve researchers in areas including orthopaedic surgery and brain imaging.

Children's Hospital of Philadelphia: Our collaboration includes research into juvenile arthritis and genome wide genetic analyais.
