The Menzies Centre for Health Policy invites academics and students from both Australia and overseas to apply to undertake research as a visitor to the Menzies Centre.  Potential visitors should have a strong interest in health policy and a research project that will complement the research strengths of Menzies Centre staff.
 
All visitors are asked to either present a seminar during their stay or work toward the production of a report, journal paper or other document with researchers from the Menzies Centre.

Students and academics who wish to visit the Menzies Centre should forward their application to the Visitor Supervisor, Dr Cathie Hull (see below).  Applications will be assessed on the feasibility of the proposed research and the capacity of the Menzies Centre to provide the environment for the research to take place.
