The recently formed Queensland Emergency Medicine Research Foundation (QEMRF) received seed funding of AUS$5Million and will receive AUS$2Million per annum from Queensland Health to support research directed at improving the care of patients in Emergency Departments and to develop Emergency Medicine research capacity in Queensland. We are also a registered charity.
