We are proud to celebrate our Concord Hospital Burns Unit for winning the Health Innovation award at the 2025 NSW Health Awards.

The Unit’s groundbreaking 3D bioprinted skin project is a first-in-human clinical trial currently for burns victims and it is expected to advance the treatment of any sort of soft-tissue loss.

Dr Jo Maitz, Group Lead of the Burns and Reconstructive Surgery Research Group at the Concord Burns Unit, said she was honoured to accept the award on behalf of an incredible multidisciplinary team of engineers, clinicians and scientists.

Congratulations to Dr Jeffrey Wang and the team from the Atherosclerosis Team here at ANZAC and beyond for their recent publication:

“Triglyceride-rich lipoprotein, remnant cholesterol, and apolipoproteins CII, CIII and E in patients with schizophrenia”

This work shows that people living with Schizophrenia have significantly altered lipid profiles that are not explained by traditional metabolic risk factors such as obesity and diabetes. This finding provides new opportunities for targeted therapies for elevated triglycerides and cardiovascular risk in this underserved population.
