SHAPING THE FUTURE
Herston Health Precinct continues to evolve – delivering next generation advances in the detection, prevention and treatment of some of the world’s most challenging health issues.
We are developing a number of new health and research centres and institutes which offers investors with exciting opportunities to collaborate and innovate with us as we influence the future of global healthcare together.
As a world-leading cluster of biomedical, research, education and clinical activity, we have unlimited potential for continued growth in translating medical research into clinical practice, treatment and prevention for the global community.
Our priorities are aligned with community healthcare needs. We focus on diagnostics, treatment and improving health services; the prevention, detection and management of cancers; personalised medicine through genomics; biofabrication, robotics, and nuclear medicine; and improving geriatric and end of life care.
Strong links with Metro North’s The Prince Charles Hospital – one of Australia’s premier heart and lung hospitals – will allow further collaboration and innovation in the treatment of cardiovascular and chronic respiratory diseases.
If you are interested in partnering with us on these opportunities, please contact us for more information.
Queensland Cancer Centre
The new Queensland Cancer Centre at the Herston Health Precinct will provide Queenslanders with access to contemporary and world-leading therapies. The centre of excellence will also enable greater ‘home-grown’ research and its translation into local health solutions. To manage growing cancer service demand, the Queensland Government will take the necessary steps to ensure quality cancer care is accessible to all Queenslanders, no matter where they live.
The Hospital Rescue Plan will deliver:
- at least 150 beds
- a new statewide cancer centre in Metro North
- a review of cancer services infrastructure needs for metro, rural and regional Queensland
- better planning that meets clinical needs
- partnerships with nearby health, research and education facilities.
REDEVELOPMENT PROJECTS
New infrastructure will be delivered at Herston Health Precinct through a 5 hectare $1.1B mixed-use redevelopment of Herston Quarter by Metro North’s development partner, Australian Unity.
Herston Quarter will be redeveloped into a world class health and wellbeing precinct that will include a new public health facility (known as the Surgical, Treatment and Rehabilitation Service), a private hospital, aged care and retirement living, residential and student accommodation, child care, commercial and retail, car parking and public realm.
Redevelopment began in 2017 and will continue for the next ten years.
