Another day, another aspirational policy from Chief Minister Gallagher.

Today we’re going to tackle cancer:

if re-elected ACT Labor will partner with the ANU to provide $1.5 million to support the establishment of high profile Centenary Chair in Cancer Research at JCSMR [John Curtin School of Medical Research].

The Chair will be closely linked with the Canberra Region Cancer Centre and enhance collaboration between clinicians and researchers, building research capacity in the health system and giving researchers access to clinical expertise and settings.

I’d prefer to see this money go to a research institution that wasn’t so keen to lay off local staff.
