Trusts and Foundations
CMRI is backed by a range of charitable trusts and foundations who understand that our research is a long-term operation that requires passion, commitment, and investment. Without such support, we risk delaying the search for treatments and cures for childhood diseases.

Trusts and Foundations - A Year in Review
Some highlighted projects funded by Trusts and Foundations during 2023.
Here are just a few examples of how trusts and foundations are currently supporting our research programs:
- The Australian Cancer Research Foundation (ACRF) has funded equipment for three major facilities at CMRI: The ACRF Centre for Kinomics, The ACRF Telomere Analysis Centre, and The ACRF International Centre for the Proteome of Human Cancer
- Ian Potter Foundation has provided several major equipment grants, including the seed of what was eventually to become the ACRF Centre for Kinomics and then ProCan
- The Rebecca L Cooper Medical Research Foundation supported Dr Grant Logan’s “Gene therapy to extinguish inflammation and treat Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)” project, which provided crucial staff resources to complete essential data for further competitive funding and research.
- By supporting the Cell Biology Unit at CMRI, led by Professor Tracy Bryan, Maddie Riewoldt’s Vision is helping to create an accurate model for telomere-related bone marrow failure syndromes, which will also serve as a platform for future gene therapies.
