Your brain powers everything you do: from movement to memory, emotions to sleep, and even those “Wait… why did I walk into this room again?” moments.

Brain Awareness Week was created to highlight why brain health matters, and to raise awareness of the many ways brain diseases, disorders and injuries affect millions of Australians.

Today, more than 3 billion people globally live with a neurological condition, including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and dementia. Data suggests this number is set to rise, driven largely by ageing populations, increased life expectancy and environmental factors.

Clinical trials play a crucial role in advancing this knowledge. By supporting research, we help contribute to scientific progress aimed at improving outcomes for people living with neurological conditions, both today and into the future.

At Emeritus, we’re proud to support research that deepens understanding of neurological health and advances the science that drives better care, brighter futures, and new possibilities for the mind.

1 in 70 Australians live with Coeliac disease, yet research estimates approx 80%* remain undiagnosed. The everyday impact is real. Fatigue, pain, nutrient deficiencies and the constant challenge of navigating a gluten‑free world.

Coeliac disease is an autoimmune condition that, when left untreated, can lead to long‑term health issues and significantly affect quality of life.

This week (Coeliac Awareness Week) is an opportunity to recognise the signs, support those living with the condition, and help foster greater understanding across our communities.

At Emeritus, we proudly support research aimed at improving the lives of people with coeliac disease and building a healthier future. By contributing to scientific progress, we hope to see clearer diagnosis pathways, stronger treatment options, and better outcomes for those impacted.

Awareness starts conversations. Conversations inspire change.

As we look back to International Women’s Day, this week we’re celebrating the women helping drive medical research forward, starting with our CEO, Cheryl Coleman.

Since joining Emeritus in 2018 and becoming CEO in 2021, Cheryl has helped lead remarkable growth across the organisation.

In just a few years, Emeritus has grown from:
• 14 team members to 165
• 1 research site to 2
• 350 sqm of research space to 2700 sqm

Today, our teams support complex clinical trials that help advance treatments and improve patient outcomes. With over 24 years in clinical trials, Cheryl has seen first-hand how research changes lives, including her own.

“I have been fortunate to witness medical advancement after advancement. I believe we still have so much more we can achieve in running effective clinical trials. We must continue to be curious, innovative and bold.”

Here is to the many women helping shape the future of healthcare through research.

History isn’t just about the past, it’s the foundation of every breakthrough we make today.

We’re excited to start a new series reflecting on the pivotal moments that shaped the clinical research industry. First up: The 1948 Streptomycin Trial.

Before this landmark study, there was no "gold standard" for testing new medicines. This was the world’s first true randomised controlled clinical trial, and it fundamentally changed how we prove a treatment is safe and effective.

At Emeritus Research, we still uphold these exact principles, randomisation, rigorous methodology, and objective science, to ensure the therapies of tomorrow are built on a foundation of trust.

Swipe through to see how this 1948 study still protects your health today!

Justin Tan always knew his medical journey would be an atypical one, favouring strategy and forward-thinking over traditional hospital practice. He actually discovered Emeritus through an Instagram ad, proving that a little bit of "doom-scrolling" can lead to a career-defining move 😉

With an INTJ personality and a background that nearly led him to management consulting, he brings a unique, high-level perspective to his role as a Principal Investigator. Since joining the Emeritus Research family in 2024, he has become an essential leader, steering trials through the critical phases of Start-up, Recruitment, and Close-out. During the start-up phase, he works closely with our Trial Advancement Team to ensure every protocol and participant document meets his high standards of due diligence, setting the tone for the entire study.

He is the first to say that while he came for the career, he stayed for the people, and he thrives on the frontier of medicine where he can see what therapies will look like five years from now.

Outside of the clinic, he is a self-proclaimed food lover who is finally getting back to the cafe-hopping he enjoyed so much as a medical student. In his own words, he likes food “A LOT”.

Is it just a sore throat, or is it Strep A?

Professor Paul is back for another round of TEA (Therapeutic Area of Education). Today, he’s breaking down Strep A, which you might better know it as "strep throat".

How do we get new medical treatments to the people who need them, faster? ⏱️

It starts with seamless teamwork! Our Melbourne and Sydney sites work hand in hand with global researchers to make sure our clinical trials run like clockwork.

Because we stay in sync with our partners, we’ve recently seen:
- World-leading recruitment for obesity research.
- Over 400 participants supported in a single month for a vaccine study! (that’s a lot).

Efficiency means better care and faster results. Are you interested in joining a clinical trial with us? Check out our current trials on our website via the link in our bio.

Our growth story: From one room to two thriving research centres.

It all began in 1990, when Emeritus Research started as a small private practice led by Prof Stephen Hall in Melbourne, a simple beginning that planted the seed for everything we are today.

Fast‑forward to 2018, and that seed had grown into something much bigger. We moved into our first custom‑built clinical trials centre at 1180 Toorak Road in Camberwell, 460sqm of purpose‑designed space with consulting rooms, a laboratory, an IP storeroom, and office space for a growing team of 29 staff, across Clinical and Operations.

By 2020, demand for high‑quality trials had expanded beyond Melbourne. We opened our Botany site in Sydney, another purpose‑built facility with over 5 consulting rooms, while simultaneously acquiring 1186 Toorak Road to expand our Melbourne site to 1,300sqm and more than 15 consulting rooms. Two cities, one mission.

In 2022, Sydney grew again, we added the ground floor and expanded operations to 300sqm, giving our teams more space to support the growing number of studies.

Then came 2024, a landmark year. Our Melbourne operations moved up the road to 1096 Toorak Road, a brand‑new 1,889sqm building designed to support our teams, our participants, and our future growth.

And now, in 2026, our story continues. With 162 employees across two major sites and expanded teams in Quality & Training, Trial Start‑Up, and People & Culture, we’re stronger than ever, and still growing

When you take part in a clinical trial, you want to know you are in a professional environment.

In 2025, 11 External Audits spanning 17 trials were audited by external experts, resulting in zero critical findings.

These snapshots help us ensure that our standards of care and safety protocols remain at the highest level for every participant.

Every day, our participants use the ‘happy‑or‑not’ stations to tell us about their experience, and the message is clear:

- People feel informed.
- People feel respected.
- People feel supported throughout their trial journey.

We love hearing that our clear communication, approachable staff, and willingness to truly listen are making a difference.

But most importantly…

Your feedback helps us get even better.

Whether it’s a quick tap on the screen or a comment shared with our team, every piece of feedback helps us improve, refine, and continue building an experience where participants always come first.

If you’re visiting one of our sites, we’d love to hear from you! You will find happy‑or‑not feedback portals at key entries and exits during your visit to emeritus.
