10 of the best research projects - NHMRC

The NHMRC has released the 17th edition of its flagship publication, 10 of the Best. It tells the compelling stories behind ten groundbreaking Australian health and medical research projects which were funded under NHMRC's grant program.

Covering a wide range of research priorities, including Indigenous maternal and child health, cancer, coronary heart disease, hepatitis B and Parkinson's disease, this edition highlights researchers whose work is targeting prevention, treatment, management and cure. Translating this research into better health outcomes, these projects have led to the commercialisation of medications, diagnostic validation and development and implementation of Indigenous health services.

Top 50 most-cited campus publications: updated

This list is updated every three to four months; significant changes are unlikely to occur more frequently.

We compile the list using Scopus, an abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed literature.

New and updated Fact Sheets

Fact Sheet no.4: How to choose the right journal for publication

This new Fact Sheet provides a practical, step-by-step guide to selecting the most appropriate journal for publication. It outlines how to generate a shortlist using free journal finder tools, critically assess journal quality and fit, and make a final decision that aligns with your research goals.

It lists key considerations such as scope, indexing, and publication timelines into a clear, practical guide, helping you streamline your decision-making and avoid unsuitable or low-quality publications.

Fact Sheet no.15: EBSCOhost: search, save, and manage results

This updated Fact Sheet reflects recent changes to the EBSCOhost interface, helping you navigate the platform with confidence. It shows you how to search effectively in databases such as CINAHL, and how to save and manage your results efficiently.

You'll be guided through building a structured search, applying limits, and combining results, as well as saving searches, setting alerts, and exporting citations, so you can quickly find and organise high-quality evidence for your work.

Key reports shaping research, healthcare, and public services

Australia's mothers and babies

Australia's mothers and babies consolidates information on pregnancy, birth experiences, and outcomes of mothers and babies in Australia over time. The report covers the antenatal period, labour and birth, outcomes for babies at birth, perinatal deaths (stillbirths and neonatal deaths) and maternal deaths. [AIHW] Read now.

Levels and trends in child mortality

For the first time, the United Nations Inter‑agency Group for Child Mortality Estimation (UN IGME) has produced fully synchronized cause‑of‑death estimates, showing what children are dying from at different ages.

This offers the strongest evidence yet on where urgent action is needed most, and which life‑saving interventions will have the greatest impact. [UNICEF]  Read now.

Report on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health research and researchers

A report on how the Medical Research Future Fund is supporting research to improve the health of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

It includes funding insights, facilitators and barriers to research, and impact stories. It highlights examples of Indigenous sovereign governance and community-led innovation, and identifies opportunities to strengthen the long-term impact of these investments. [Department of Health, Disability and Ageing (Australia)] Read now.

Scaling artificial intelligence in health

Artificial Intelligence (AI), when scaled responsibly, holds significant potential for healthcare systems. Yet significant barriers to its adoption remain, including fragmented data foundations, regulatory uncertainty, and gaps in governance and workforce capacity.

To help support actions toward the responsible scale of AI in health, a policy checklist was developed to guide decision making and prioritisation. [OECD Publishing] Read now.

Voice of children framework

A practical guide to help Australian government officials ensure children's perspectives are meaningfully included in the development of policies and programs that affect them, particularly in early childhood education and care settings.

It includes best practice guidance on how and when to consult with children, and considerations for safe and inclusive consultations. [Department of Education (Australia)] Read now.
