A big thanks to Professor Tom Kay and the team at St Vincent’s Institute for a stimulating evening last night which included a tour of SVI laboratories and an after dinner speech by The Hon Mark Dreyfus QC MP.

I left knowing all about protein crystallography, immunology and diabetes and stem cell regulation. Okay, I left understanding a third of what was said but what I have now is a desire to learn more.

SVI conducts research into the cause, prevention and treatment of diabetes, obesity and heart disease, arthritis and osteoporosis, cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and infectious diseases.
