The Menzies School of Health Research (Menzies) is an independent medical and research institute based in Darwin, the Northern Territory (NT). We are proud to be a national leader in health, education and research training, specialising in Indigenous and tropical health research for more than 30 years. Menzies’ headquarters are in Darwin, with offices in Alice Springs, Brisbane and Melbourne. We also collaborate with partners at the Papuan Health and Community Development Foundation in Timika, Papua Indonesia and the Infectious Disease Society in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia, to support the design, implementation and interpretation of research activities in these key overseas locations. Our primary international partners are Indonesia and Malaysia. We also work in Timor Leste, Ethiopia, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Nepal, Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar and Tanzania. We continue to find new ways of breaking the cycle of disease and improving the health and wellbeing of Australian society and beyond. Menzies was established in 1985 as a body corporate of the NT Government under the Menzies School of Health Research Act 1985 . This Act was amended in 2004 to formalise Menzies' relationship with Charles Darwin University (CDU). Menzies is now a school within CDU's Institute of Advanced Studies. Her Honour the Honourable Vicki O'Halloran AM , Administrator of Northern Territory, is the official Patron of the Menzies School of Health Research.
