Abstract
As previously reported at Croakey (see here and here, for example), many questions have been raised about the Medical Research Future Fund, including what appears to be a narrow focus on medical research, rather than the wider determinants of health.
Submissions close today for those wishing to make suggestions for the Australian Medical Research and Innovation Strategy (Strategy) and related Priorities.
Meanwhile, a joint submission from a number of health groups makes a powerful argument for the Fund to prioritise research into the wider determinants of health and health inequalities, as Professor Fran Baum and Dr Matt Fisher write below.
