TitleWhat's new: NH&MRC Road Accident Research Unit
AuthorsMcLean AJ
Year1990
TypeConference Paper
AbstractThe charter of the NH&MRC Road Accident Research Unit when we were first funded by NH&MRC back in 1981 was to investigate medical aspects of road traffic accidents in Australia, including their epidemiology. We are on five year funding, and were reviewed about three weeks ago for possible renewal for a further five years. I want to emphasise that we are on health sector funding. Now that Ian Smith's Unit has been established i n Perth, we are not the only group in Australia to be conducting road accident research on other than Transport sector funding. We are somewhat more removed than Ian is from the political process in that our funds are allocated by a research council rather than directly from the Federal Government.
