Welcome
The Centre for Clinical Research Excellence-Infection and Bioethics in Haematological Malignancies (CCRE-IBHM) is an NHMRC funded, multi-centre research collaboration aimed at improving outcomes in malignant haematology and bone marrow transplant recipients, with a focus on bioethics and infection.
The CCRE consists of 4 primary research sites affiliated with the University of Sydney, including the Western Clinical School at Westmead Hospital, The Children's Hospital Westmead, the National Centre for Immunisation Research and the Centre for Values Ethics and Law in Medicine.
The research collaboration will develop and evaluate surveillance methods, new diagnostics and interventions, such as vaccination and cell-based therapies, to improve infection-related outcomes in malignant haematology and bone marrow transplantation. Bioethics will underpin all major research themes.
