Medical Devices Partnering Program

The Medical Device Partnering Program (MDPP) supports the development of cutting-edge medical devices through unique collaborations between researchers, industry, end-users and government.

The program coordinates the efforts of key stakeholders and paves the way for the development of prototypes, proof of concept and/or commercialisation planning for potential Australian medical device products. We have a particular focus on finding solutions for clinicians, the ageing and the disabled.

"The MDPP is possibly the best model for fostering University-Industry collaboration that I have encountered in an Australian University."
