The Westmead Research Hub brings together seven major organisations to share facilities, resources and expertise, enabling large‑scale collaborative research across Westmead. It operates as a coordinated network where partners pool specialised equipment, co‑develop projects and support joint research teams, strengthening Westmead’s collective capacity in medical science and innovation.
Children’s Medical Research Institute (CMRI)
Driving advances in cancer, gene therapy, neurobiology and embryology, CMRI works closely with Westmead partners through shared facilities and joint research programs. Its imaging, proteomics, cell biology and single‑cell analytics capabilities strengthen collaboration and accelerate discovery across the wider Westmead research community.
CSIRO
CSIRO, Australia’s national science agency, works closely with local research teams to advance bioinformatics, digital health and data‑driven medicine. Its co‑location accelerates precision medicine, imaging innovation and translational research across the Westmead community.
Western Sydney Local Health District (WSLHD)
Western Sydney Local Health District delivers hospital and community health services across Western Sydney, including Westmead Hospital, and has a strong focus on teaching and research. Its Research & Education Network (REN) supports clinicians, students and partners, helping integrate research, learning and innovation to improve patient care across the district
