About Walter and Eliza Hall Institute

The Walter and Eliza Hall Institute (WEHI) was the first medical research institute to be established in Australia. It was founded in 1915 with funds from a Trust established by Eliza Hall following the death of her husband Walter Hall, a pioneering transport, livestock and mining entrepreneur. Ever since that time, the Institute has held fast to the vision of its founders – ‘to be the birthplace of discoveries rendering signal service to mankind in the prevention and removal of disease and the mitigation of suffering.’ The Institute’s principal research laboratories are located in Parkville, close to the centre of Melbourne, opposite the University of Melbourne and adjacent to The Royal Melbourne Hospital. It also operates a Biotechnology Centre within La Trobe University’s R&D Park at Bundoora and the Clive and Vera Ramaciotti Laboratories in Kew.
