Help fund medical research that changes lives.

Cherish proudly funds QCGC Research’s first post-doctoral researcher – Dr Eva Baxter.

“Without Cherish, QCGC Research wouldn’t have started down this pathway. Cherish keeps us grounded and connected to people who will benefit from our research. I think Cherish will always be needed and valued. Without Cherish’s support to kickstart small trials, we couldn’t secure the funding for big projects,” Eva said.

Cherish partnered with QCGC Research and other industry stakeholders, like Sullivan Nicolaides Pathology and Metro North Hospital and Health Service, to support the team’s successful application for a National Health and Medical Research Council Partnership Grant for feMMe Molecular.

Cherish funded the early studies for feMMe Molecular. With Cherish’s support, Eva gathered and analysed eight samples. This was enough preliminary evidence to show funding bodies that QCGC Research had the samples and could conduct the analysis.
