Research is a core activity of the Menzies Centre for Health Policy.  Menzies Centre staff collaborate extensively with government agencies, area health services, non-government organisations, independent institutes and with industry, locally and internationally, on a wide range of research and consultancy projects.

Staff at the Menzies Centre mentor and supervise research students enrolled at both The Australian National University and the University of Sydney.  The Menzies Centre also hosts academic and students visitors pursuing projects that align with the research strengths and interests of Menzies Centre staff.
