There will be an emphasis too on positively impacting patient care, building on our world-class science, training tomorrow\u2019s leaders, and ensuring a collaborative working culture is day to day core business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The blueprint details a large collection of initiatives including closer ties with government, industry and consumers, and stronger collaborations across the priority research areas to attract large-scale funding for multidisciplinary research projects and infrastructure programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cThese steps will see an increase in research translation, with clearer pipeline pathways from basic science to clinical care. There will also be a focus on a strong education program, new fellowship opportunities, measures to attract top students and broader access to equipment and support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cImportantly, the new framework aligns with the strategic direction of both the University of Sydney and the Northern Sydney Local Health District, increasing opportunities for research impact and better patient outcomes. It will see researchers benefit from unprecedented support and targeted assistance from the partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe have a large and impressive team of researchers at the Kolling, including many who are world leaders in their fields. I\u2019m confident this new strategic framework will offer crucial support to our team as they continue their life-changing work.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1969,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"research-group-tax":[],"primary-research-area":[],"class_list":["post-1968","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/kollinginstitute.org.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/thumb_Blog_Kolling_050221_RN_-229_w550_h380_fcrop.webp",550,380,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/kollinginstitute.org.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/thumb_Blog_Kolling_050221_RN_-229_w550_h380_fcrop-150x150.webp",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/kollinginstitute.org.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/thumb_Blog_Kolling_050221_RN_-229_w550_h380_fcrop-300x207.webp",300,207,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/kollinginstitute.org.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/thumb_Blog_Kolling_050221_RN_-229_w550_h380_fcrop.webp",550,380,false],"large":["https:\/\/kollinginstitute.org.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/thumb_Blog_Kolling_050221_RN_-229_w550_h380_fcrop.webp",550,380,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/kollinginstitute.org.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/thumb_Blog_Kolling_050221_RN_-229_w550_h380_fcrop.webp",550,380,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/kollinginstitute.org.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/thumb_Blog_Kolling_050221_RN_-229_w550_h380_fcrop.webp",550,380,false]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"ict-wordpress-support@sydney.edu.au","author_link":"https:\/\/kollinginstitute.org.au\/staging\/author\/ict-wordpress-supportsydney-edu-au\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"The Kolling\u2019s new research plan has been confirmed marking an important milestone for the institute.
