It was a pleasure to welcome the next generation of the Perich family to the Perich Centre for Robotics and Health Technology at the Ingham Institute for Applied Medical Research in Liverpool, where they saw firsthand how their family’s generosity is creating meaningful change in healthcare for our community and beyond. Their ongoing support continues to drive innovation with the potential to improve lives locally and around the world.

During presentations from Dr Hao Tran and Dr Sharon Kay, the family enjoyed fascinating insights into heart health and emerging medical technology. One of the highlights of the visit came with a delightful surprise when a future Perich family member appeared on the remote ultrasound screen, offering a glimpse into technology that could transform ultrasounds by making them more compact, portable and accessible.

A warm thank you to the Liverpool Catholic Club for visiting the Ingham Institute and spending time with our researchers and clinicians.

It was a pleasure to showcase the work of Dr Hao Tran and Dr Sharon Kay, highlighting innovations in 3D printing, augmented reality in healthcare and remote ultrasound. We also heard an insightful presentation from Dr Tzipi Cohen Hyams on correlative microscopy and how advanced imaging techniques are helping us better understand cancer at a cellular level.

Another highlight was hearing from Professor Jon Hyett and his team, including Dr Ya Feng Ma , Jessica Sydney Ramos, Andrea Vicente and Sara Salehi, who shared insights into ongoing research in obstetrics which is identifying practical methodologies to improve the identification of women at elevated risk of significant birth complications, to enable preventative measures to be taken.

We are grateful for the continued support of the Liverpool Catholic Club Directors Greg Richardson, George Ajkay, Joe Mancini, Van Nguyen and Lucky Legato. Your commitment plays an important role in advancing research that improves outcomes for our community.

Professor Josephine Chow was invited by the Chair of the World Congress of Nephrology Scientific Committee to present primary outcome data at WCN 2026 in Japan, a global congress attended by over 6,000 delegates from 130 countries.

Her presentation highlighted TEACH-PD, the first large nurse-led cluster randomised controlled trial, supported by $4.7M in competitive grant funding. Delivered in the High Impact Clinical Trial (Late Breaking) Session in the Main Hall, the study was very well received, with strong feedback recognising both its scale and rigorous design.

TEACH-PD at a glance

• 1,462 patients across Australia and New Zealand

• 94 investigators across 42 PD clusters

• Collaborators: ANZDATA Registry, NZ PD Registry, Western Sydney University

• Partners include AKTN and The HOME Network

South Western Sydney Local Health District was the top recruiting site globally. A strong example of the impact of nursing-led research and international collaboration on the global stage.

A significant step forward for cancer care in NSW.

The announcement of the Australian Centre for Cancer Equity (AcCE) by the Minns Government marks an important milestone in addressing the unequal burden of cancer across our communities.

Ingham Institute for Applied Medical Research has established AcCE in partnership with the NSW Government - via the South Western Sydney Local Health District and Cancer Institute NSW.

Cancer does not affect all people equally. Where you live, your cultural background, language, income and access to care can shape every stage of the cancer journey. AcCE has been established to bring together researchers, clinicians, policymakers and communities to drive more equitable outcomes through data informed, community centred research and strong collaboration. Backed by the NSW Government, this initiative is focused on ensuring that no one is left behind in access to high quality cancer care.

This is equity in action. A major step toward ensuring the benefits of cancer research and innovation are shared by all communities.

Today, the Ingham Institute Postdoctoral Association hosted a Lunch & Learn with final-year PhD candidate Namitha Thomas, sharing research that brings attention to an often-overlooked area of women’s health.

Did you know perimenopause and menopause can impact oral health?

Despite the risks to quality of life, this connection is rarely discussed.
Namitha’s research explores the oral health experiences of women during this stage of life and highlights the important role non-dental healthcare providers can play in improving awareness and care.

Namitha Thomas is a final-year PhD candidate at the Australian Centre for Integrated Oral Health (ACIOH) and an overseas-trained dentist with a strong research focus on oral health promotion and women’s health.
