CAPRA moves to new Institute
Monash University Injury Research Institute is unique in its dedication to the prevention, management and rehabilitation of injury, across the full range of injury types, causes, and settings, and across the full range of age groups of people concerned.
The Institute draws on Monash University's strengths in all disciplines including the humanities, and the health, physical and social sciences to define the problems, identify their causes and develop solutions.
The specialist, multi-disciplinary research teams within the Institute work with collaborating partners from government, community and industry to prevent injuries, save lives and build futures.
