Research Building
Opening 2024
The new building has been designed to house a state-of-the-art medical imaging suite. This would include a 7T MRI – to be the first in South Australia and only one of three in Australia – but notably the only one in the country to have clinical capacity.

The 7T MRI would be supported by a 0.55T MRI, which would be the first in the Southern Hemisphere and would:
Introducing this imaging suite would see Flinders University become part of the National Imaging Facility (INF) and a wider global network – growing Adelaide’s international reputation as a Biomedical city while cementing Flinders’ position as the largest integrated academic hospital campus in South Australia.

The building will also be filled with other specialist equipment, which requires additional financial support. There are also opportunities to gift to the construction, including naming labs, spaces and even the building itself.
To find out how you can give to this medical imaging suite, or other elements of the building, contact Sarah Walsh, Interim Executive Director of the Office of Communication, Marketing and Engagement at sarah.walsh@flinders.edu.au or 0409 366 292.
