Every year, 1800 clinical trials commence in Australia. Yet the majority take place only in metropolitan hospitals, putting them out of reach for the nearly 7 million Australians who live in rural and remote areas. For the past five years, TrialHub (Australia) Hub, the @AlfredHealth program founded with and supported by @MonashUni, has been bringing clinical trials to outer metro, rural and regional Victorians living with cancer and other serious conditions. Professor Stephen Jane writes in the @canberratimes that regional trials could be a key element in Australia's desirability as an international clinical trials destination. "It's not the magic bullet for completely solving the rural/city health divide - but having a truly national clinical trial network would be a very good start."

Access to clinical trials via a rural, regional or outer metro hospital is a lifeline for many people living with cancer or other serious conditions. TrialHub, based at @AlfredHealth and supported by Monash University, makes this possible by partnering with six Victorian hospitals: @BassCoastHealth, @PeninsulaHealth (Rosebud), Latrobe Regional Health, Bendigo Health, @NorthernHealth_ and Mildura Base Public Hospital. John spoke with Nic Healey @ABCaustralia Central Victoria about being diagnosed with cancer at age 60, and the barrage of treatments he endured. "The people that have done trials in the past are the reason we are where we are ... without the trial in Bendigo... I would not be here." #Monash #TranslationalMedicine #ClinicalTrials #AusHealth Listen: More on TrialHub:

"Without question my diagnosis was dire ... I was told if I had received this diagnosis a few years ago, I would have just been told to go home and get my affairs in order." TrialHub was founded by @MonashUni and @AlfredHealth to bring #ClinicalTrials to rural Australians, partnering with regional hospitals. Five years on, it's helped hundreds of people. Bendigo man John Robson was diagnosed four years ago with stage 4 melanoma. "To be that sick and have to go to Melbourne, while in such a difficult place emotionally, mentally and medically, honestly would have been torture - a torture that should be never inflicted on a person in that state," he's told Summer Liu at the @australian. #Monash #TranslationalMedicine #CancerTrials #HealthEquity

Are you enrolled in Honours 2025 in our Sub-Faculty - @MonashSTM or @Monash_SPHPM ? There's still time to apply for an Alfred Research Alliance scholarship: two are on offer, each worth $6000. The scholarship enabled 2023 recipient Vishna Mendis to immerse herself in an exciting frontier of biomedical research: the interface of nanotechnology and diabetes. She's now about to start a PhD at our Australian Centre for Blood Diseases. "This is a great precinct, and I'm thrilled to now be making solid progress towards my academic career." Applications close 7 February. #Monash #TranslationalResearch #StudentExperience #AlfredResearchAlliance
