Our researchers on the Royal North Shore Hospital campus are increasing the impact of their valuable work, broadening our understanding of conditions, improving treatments and delivering expert care.

The Kolling Institute Year in Review highlights the significant activity across the institute, and comes as we mark an important milestone with the launch of the 2026–2030 Research Strategy.

Researchers are expanding the scale, reach and influence of their investigations through a growing capability, stronger partnerships and a rising profile at a local, national and international level.

This week we opened a brand new food and beverage precinct for our staff, patients, families and visitors to enjoy every day.

More than great food, the new space has been purpose built, including quiet spaces where our community can come together through some of life's biggest moments - offering a place to pause, connect, celebrate, find comfort, and catch your breath.

Thank you to everyone who played a part in revitalising our hospital foyer and creating a brighter welcome for patients, visitors and staff.

❤️QUICK-THINKING DOCTOR HELPS SAVE TEENAGE FOOTBALLER❤️

Royal North Shore Hospital emergency medicine specialist Dr Davina Julliard was watching her own child play football when she was alerted that a 15-year-old player had collapsed on a nearby field.

Davina rushed to help, joining an off-duty paramedic and other bystanders who had already started CPR and prepared an AED.

Together, they continued CPR and delivered several shocks before NSW Ambulance paramedics arrived.

The player, Ivy Thrussell, was later diagnosed with Wolff–Parkinson–White syndrome and is now recovering, with a full recovery expected.

Davina said the incident highlighted just how important access to an AED can be.

“Having access to an AED is absolutely critical to surviving, and surviving with a meaningful outcome as well,” she said.

Everyone deserves healthcare that feels safe, welcoming and respectful.

On 25 July, the NSLHD & Rainbow Screening Clinic is providing free breast/chest screening for LGBTIQ+ people with breast/chest tissue in a supportive, gender-affirming environment.

A mammogram can detect cancer long before symptoms appear, sometimes when it's as small as a grain of rice. Yet 1 in 4 eligible LGBTIQ+ people have never had a mammogram.

Taking time for screening is an act of self-care. Early detection saves lives.
