This week, we’re proud to support World Immunisation Week by spotlighting our staff who chose to get vaccinated on site.

By rolling up their sleeves, our team is taking practical steps to protect themselves, their colleagues, and the wider community. Vaccination remains one of the most effective ways to reduce the spread of preventable diseases and support safer, healthier environments.

Seeing our teams participate in on-site vaccination is a powerful example of prevention in action.

Behind any clinical trial, there is a dedicated team.

In clinical trials, results aren’t just numbers. They help guide decisions, shape study outcomes and support the care of real participants.

A large part of this work happens behind the scenes in the lab.

It’s the accuracy of every sample processed, the care taken to meet strict timelines, and the ability to solve challenges quickly and effectively that help keep studies running smoothly.

Because of this, laboratory teams play an essential role in:

- ensuring data is accurate and reliable
- supporting participant safety and monitoring
- keeping studies on track
- helping research teams deliver meaningful outcomes

To our laboratory professionals: your work is foundational to everything we do. Thank you for your expertise, care and commitment to high standards every day.

Happy World Laboratory Day to the teams whose impact is essential to clinical research.

When you think of clinical research, you might not always see the work happening behind the scenes.

Our Quality and Training Team plays a key role in making sure every study runs safely, smoothly and to a high standard.

From supporting our teams to protecting participants and keeping everything on track, their work helps ensure research is delivered with care and consistency.

It’s all part of building trust in every study we run

In 1982, a new approach to making medicines was approved for the first time.

It was called Humulin, an insulin produced using recombinant DNA technology. Before this, insulin was taken from animals. Supply was limited, and the quality could vary.

Scientists introduced a new approach. They used bacteria to produce human insulin, creating a treatment that was more consistent and could be made at scale.

This was the first time a genetically engineered medicine was approved for human use.

It showed that medicines could be developed in a completely new way, using biological engineering, rather than relying on animal or naturally derived sources.

Today, this same approach is used to develop many modern treatments, including biologics, vaccines and gene-based therapies.

A single breakthrough that helped shape the future of medicine.

Working tirelessly behind the scenes at our Melbourne facilities, you’ll find our Executive Administration Team: Jacqui, Seana and Annie.

From supporting the Melbourne Executive Team to helping managers keep processes running smoothly, no two days are ever the same.

Whether it’s managing calendars and emails, organising travel, planning company events, or making sure our facilities are clean, safe and running as they should, they’re always ready to step in and help.

Problem solving, organising, and offering support whenever it’s needed, whatever the task, they make it happen.

Today we’re celebrating World Health Day and the importance of working together to build a healthier future.

This year’s theme, “Together for health. Stand with science”, reminds us how important science is in helping us understand, prevent and treat disease.

From developing new treatments to improving how care is delivered, science plays a key role in protecting the health of individuals and communities.

At Emeritus, we support this by helping advance clinical research and working alongside participants, clinicians and researchers to contribute to better health outcomes.

Because when science and people come together, progress becomes possible.

Over the weekend, some of our Sydney team took part in Run2Cure Neuroblastoma, supporting a cause that is deeply connected to the importance of research.

Neuroblastoma claims more lives of children under the age of five than any other cancer. We need to improve treatments so they are more effective and less toxic and the way to do this is through research.

It was a meaningful way for our team to come together, support an important cause, and be part of a wider community working towards better outcomes for children and families.

Thank you to all our team members who took part into this great initiative!

The Declaration of Helsinki emerged in the post‑war era, following the revelations of unethical experimentation during World War II, as the medical community sought a unified ethical framework for research involving human participants.

It was the first international document to set out ethical principles specifically for research involving human participants. Created by the World Medical Association in 1964, it established the idea that the wellbeing of research volunteers must always take precedence over scientific or societal interests.

For the first time, researchers were formally required to ensure:
- Informed, voluntary consent
- Independent ethical review
- Scientific justification for involving humans
- A favourable risk–benefit assessment

Its principles continue to guide global clinical research standards and have directly influenced Good Clinical Practice (GCP), the framework we follow at Emeritus Research.

It’s more than just a painful rash, it’s a virus that’s been hiding in your system for years.

Professor Paul is back for another round of TEA (Therapeutic Area of Education). This time, he’s shining a light on Shingles, why it reactivates, and what researchers are doing to stay one step ahead of it.

Meet Oscar, our Melbourne Site’s Operations Manager 👋

From starting as a casual lab assistant in 2019 to now leading site operations as Operations Manager in Melbourne, Oscar’s journey at Emeritus has been all about growth, learning and leadership.

Today, Oscar helps keep clinical trials running smoothly, working with teams, sponsors and participants to make sure studies are delivered efficiently and to a high standard.

What he enjoys most? The fast-paced nature of the role and the opportunity to keep improving how things are done, always looking for smarter ways to support both teams and participants.

A proud moment for Oscar has been supporting his team to deliver strong results while creating a positive, high-performing environment along the way.

Outside of work, you’ll find him staying up late watching ice hockey, cheering on Richmond, or heading outside for a lunchtime kick-to-kick with the team.

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.
