Empowering Researchers, Transforming Lives: AMRF's 70th Anniversary Year

AMRF

As AMRF launches into another remarkable year of funding groundbreaking medical research, we are excited to share our showcase of the innovation and hard work over 70 years of medical researchers!


Our 70th anniversary marks the significant milestone of awarding over $100 million to medical researchers since 1955 - funding made possible by the invaluable support of donors like you, funding that has empowered researchers to make a life-changing difference for all New Zealanders.


Our 2025 events will pay tribute to the past, present and future of medical researchers and our 70th year theme of Empowering Researchers, Transforming Lives is reflected in the calibre and range of speaker series events we will be hosting throughout the year.

 

The first newsletter for 2025 offers a snapshot of our exciting 70th plans, along with celebrating our recent scholars and fellows, special funds awarded to some of the brightest minds in the field. Their achievements are a testament to the impact of your contributions.

Newsletter for Auckland Medical Research Foundation features 70th anniversary announcement, medical images, and event details for 2025 on a hexagonal background.

We invite you to read these and other stories of how your support has enabled transformational research – stories like Dr Richard Frith's development of the lifesaving apnoea treatment funded by AMRF in the early 1980s.



Make sure you book your seat for AMRF's first speaker series event on 27 February to hear first-hand from Dr Richard Frith; along with Distinguished Professor Dame Jan Harding, renowned neonatologist; and Dr Diana Sarfati, NZ Director-General of Health and cancer epidemiologist. Book your seat today!
