RESEARCH
Research provides the opportunity for our staff to investigate and implement life-saving and life-changing opportunities for our patients.
Health research across the Darling Downs Health region is given an added boost every year with the Pure Land Learning College’s generous annual $120,000 donation to the Toowoomba Hospital Foundation for the ongoing support of annual Research Project Scholarships.
The Research Project Scholarships are awarded in two categories:
- Novice (up to the value of $20,000)
- General (up to the value of $50,000)
This research makes the possibility of new discoveries and treatments for our patients a reality.
