Lab and clinic tours

Visit Macquarie University’s Motor Neurone Disease Research Centre and Clinic to experience first-hand the work that is being done to slow and stop MND. Friends of Macquarie’s MND program will then have the chance to tour the MND research laboratories, meeting with world leading research teams who are tackling MND in a bid to change the outcome of this lethal disease.

Visitors will see where more than 10% of Australia’s MND population are cared for by Professor Dominic Rowe and where two Australian-first clinical trials are currently in progress. Groups are kept small with physical distancing. PPE is provided and as always the health and safety standards in our labs are high.

• Dress code: Enclosed shoes are required for the labs. Visitors are provided with a lab coat and protective eyewear to wear during the tour.
• Parking: Metered parking is available outside 2 Technology Place and beneath the hospital, both accessible via Research Park Drive. Download the campus map.
