EMBL Australia implements the ‘EMBL model’ in Australia. This enables participating institutions to attract very talented early-career researchers, who may not otherwise consider establishing their laboratory in Australia.
EMBL Australia Group Leaders are talented, emerging science leaders, given the freedom and funding to pursue ambitious research, ask big questions and take big risks. This includes:
- the freedom to drive their own ambitious research projects in a multi-disciplinary manner
- strong international links for collaborations
- access to infrastructure and expertise to maximise technology investment
- a community of like-minded leading scientists to tackle the new challenges in science together
- use of the EMBL brand to attract high-calibre staff and students to their group and
- access to exceptional scientific mentorship and leadership.
Our group leaders are already making a significant impact at the early stages of their careers. Their growing track record of research excellence demonstrates what they can achieve today – and offers a glimpse of the breakthroughs yet to come.
The EMBL Australia Partner Laboratory Network (PLN) consists of eight current Group Leaders and six alumni Group Leaders across 11 Australian institutes. More about our research groups and alumni here.
