Right now, the Government's funding for medical research is falling far short of what should be possible.

Only 65% of the available funding is being released each year, restricting the potential of Australian medical research in developing lifesaving discoveries and groundbreaking treatments.

Dr Monique Ryan MP has launched an email campaign calling for the full release of the MRFF (Medical Research Future Fund). The campaign generates individual emails directly to the Federal Treasurer, Finance Minister and Minister for Health.

Please see this webpage with the full details: https://www.moniqueryan.com.au/medical_research_matters.
