2014 marks the first anniversary of the Translational Research Institute and the second anniversary of Diamantina Health Partners (DHP), Queensland’s first academic health science centre. These strategic developments bring together research, teaching and treatment, to consolidate the Princess Alexandra Hospital campus at the forefront of shaping the future of health in Queensland, nationally and internationally.

Central to the Symposium program is Professor Boris Bastian, University of California, San Francisco, this year’s International Fellow. As an eminent clinical scientist, he will illustrate in his keynote address how interdisciplinary and global partnerships have advanced the understanding of the causes of skin cancers and are translating this new knowledge to novel therapies for their treatment. Professor Bastian is also this year’s Kurt Aaron Orator.
