Our Stories

For seven decades, the Auckland Medical Research Foundation (AMRF) has been a cornerstone of New Zealand’s medical research landscape. From humble beginnings in 1955 when 80 visionary founders pooled resources to fund local medical research to surpassing $100 million in grants by 2025 , our story is one of relentless pursuit of knowledge and life-changing breakthroughs. This commemorative booklet, Empowering Researchers, Transforming Lives , is more than a historical record.
