The Research Centre for Reproductive Health, located at the University of Adelaide, Australia, is a world leader in reproductive health research, innovation and discovery.
The Research Centre for Reproductive Health was established in April 2004, arising from the Reproductive Medicine Unit of the University of Adelaide. RCRH is a world leader in the investigation and improvement of reproduction and reproductive health research spanning from oogenesis to post conception.
The RCRH has made significant strides in its aim to become the leading group in reproductive health research in Australia and one of the most outstanding of its type in the world. RCRH seeks to make important scientific discoveries and foster very close clinical-based science ties. This is achieved by establishing collaborations with clinicians in obstetrics, gynaecology, endocrinology, cancer, and surgery as well as by developing individuals who understand laboratory and clinical medicine with equal confidence.
Led by Professor Robert Norman and a Senior Advisory Group, RCRH integrates key research leaders, emerging postdoctoral researchers and talented postgraduate students to assure its continual growth in depth and profile and strengthen its linkages with government, health service providers and industry to maximise impact on reproductive health service and delivery.
