Submitted to the Australian Medical Research Advisory Board (AMRAB) (November 2021).

Dietitians Australia has submitted feedback on the Australian Medical Research and Innovation Strategy 2021-2026 and the related Australian Medical Research and Innovation Priorities.

The current Strategy was developed to ensure a coherent and consistent approach is adopted in the funding of medical research and innovation from the Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF).

Our submission gives feedback on the current strategy and recommendations for the next 2021 -2026 Strategy. We have suggested a focus on prevention as well as treatment is needed to address critical issues in the health system. A five-year Nutrition Mission would support the strategy for health system prevention and treatment.
