We are guided and underpinned by the following principles:
- To be responsive to current and emerging population health problems.

- To build and sustain a supportive and enquiring environment for students and career development opportunities for our early career academics.
Our research collaborations
We are a well-established group of internationally recognised academics with a collective focus on improving population health.
Our research activity is multidisciplinary and collaborative in its partnerships and responds to national and international health problems using a range of research methodologies.
Our research
Commencing in 2003, CPHR has expanded to include six research units with teams in each unit working on a broad range of population-based health research initiatives. These include:
- Epidemiology
- Health Economics
- Health Systems Improvement
- Work Health and Wellbeing
- Global Obesity Centre
- Disability, Inclusion and Advocacy.
While studying with CPHR I have found it to be a supportive research environment that encourages students to achieve their best.
