Building on an honourable past for a greater future

The Florey is Australia’s leading brain research institute, located in Melbourne, Australia. Since its establishment in 1971, the Florey has grown to become one of Australia’s finest medical research institutes. The Florey new has around 300 staff and students working to find better treatments, and ways to prevent and delay, devastating brain disorders.

The Florey continues to grow as we embark on a bold journey that will see us join forces with the Brain Research Institute, National Stroke Research Institute and Mental Health Research Institute to become the Florey Neuroscience Institutes. Our united effort will result in a critical mass of skilled researchers from different disciplines focused exclusively on the brain. This will accelerate discoveries to benefit those affected directly and indirectly by brain disorders.
