About the Robinson Institute

Led by Professor Robert Norman, the Robinson Institute brings together over 350 research staff and students and four of the leading research centres of the University of Adelaide:

• Research Centre for Reproductive Health
• Research Centre for Early Origins of Health and Disease
• Centre for Stem Cell Research
• Australian Research Centre for Health of Women and Babies

By focusing on the earliest stages of life, the Robinson Institute is looking at preventing disease and promoting health in children and adults across generations.

The Robinson Institute bridges the gap between research discoveries and medical practice, with many of the Institute's senior researchers also leading clinicians in their fields. This enables a strong translation of research discoveries which provides immeasurable benefits to society and for future generations.

In 2010, the University of Adelaide launched the Robinson Foundation to support the life-giving research of the Robinson Institute.
