QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First people and Traditional Custodians of the lands and waters where we meet, live, learn and work. We acknowledge and celebrate the rich and thriving diversity of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, the oldest continuing living cultures in the world. We recognise that QIMR Berghofer is located on the traditional lands of the Turrbal people and pay respects to their Elders, knowledge holders and leaders – past, present and emerging.
