Sansom Institute
Linking research to better health
The Sansom Institute is the University of South Australia’s flagship health
and biomedical research concentration, bringing together a diverse group of
leading scientists to find solutions to the big health care challenges of
the 21st century.
Named after eminent Australian pharmacist
Lloyd Sansom AO, the Institute was founded in 2004, uniting UniSA’s
internationally-recognised research strengths in molecular medicine,
pharmaceutical science, and the quality use of medicines and pharmacy
practice.
Today, the Institute continues to build upon its strengths and expand its
focus. From cancer treatment, vaccines development and gene technology to
medicines policy, the early origins of adult health and complementary
therapies, our researchers’ interests are many and varied, but what all
share is a spirit of cooperation and a desire to improve human health
through innovative, outcomes-based research.
