The Children's Medical Research Institute (CMRI) is an Australian-based independent medical research institute that conducts research into the fundamental causes of disease. , current research is focused on the causes of cancer, epilepsy and birth defects. CMRI is the organiser of Australia's Jeans for Genes campaign. The CMRI was founded in 1958 by paediatricians Sir Lorimer Dods, Dr John Fulton and Douglas Burrows, honorary treasurer and later president of the Royal Alexandra Hospital for Children, to "perform scientific research with a commitment to better treat, and where possible, prevent childhood illness and disability so that all concerned have a better quality of life". In 2009, the CMRI joined with the University of Newcastle to establish a Chemical Proteomics Centre for Kinomics (CFK) - a new discipline in Australia. This centre, a world-first, was supported by a $3.1 million grant awarded in 2009 by the Australian Cancer Research Foundation. == Research units == * Cancer Research Unit * Cell Biology Unit * Cell Cycle Unit * Cell Signalling Unit * Embryology Unit * Gene Therapy Research Unit 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Children's Medical Research Institute」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
