Australia's future depends on research. From climate resilience to medical breakthroughs, research helps us adapt and respond to emerging challenges. However, the future of funding for Australian research is in crisis. From financial cuts to outdated funding mechanisms, in the latest edition of our Science Victoria magazine, contributors explore how we got here and some of the ways we can overcome this.

Join the Royal Society of Victoria to celebrate the launch of this edition and hear from a panel of contributing authors will be introduced by RSV Councillor Anita Goh and then led by editor Tim Thwaites as we explore the current challenges and potential solutions to this crisis.

Our panelists

Olga Hogan, Senior Investment Director at Breakthrough Victoria
Michelle Marven, Executive Officer at the Association of Australian Medical Research Institutes
Professor Sammy Bedoui from the University of Melbourne

Light refreshments and an opportunity to meet authors, fellow industry professionals, researchers and science enthusiasts will be available after the talk.
