$50 million funding for UQ biosciences
The University of Queensland has received a $50 million funding agreement from the Queensland Government for the university’s Institute for Molecular Bioscience (IMB).
Vice-Chancellor Prof John Hay AC said the university was delighted that the Queensland Government was continuing its support for the Institute with funding over five years to begin in 2009-10.
The IMB is currently funded until 2008-2009.
“ Without the Queensland Government ’s support, and that of The Atlantic Philanthropies, the IMB and UQ ’s other world-renowned institutes would not be able to achieve their incredible potential,” Hay said.
“The state government, through funding from its Smart State Strategy, has been a key player in the success of the IMB.”
