Our inspiring researchers
Research is the road to improving our health knowledge and related health care – it is an investment for the health of current and future generations. However, conducting research means hard work and dedication for extended periods. To empower emerging and established researchers to achieve industry-leading outcomes, the Health Research Foundation – Hawke’s Bay funds health research initiatives. Health professionals, clinicians, sports medicine experts, pharmacists, GP’s and specialist nurses are some of the backgrounds our researchers have. The foundation harnesses this diversity as a means of reaching multitudes of the community, always focussing on maximum impact on health.
