A word from our Inaugural Donor

“I am delighted to support ASID’s important new fundraising campaign to support research in infectious diseases in Australasia. This initiative will provide much-needed support for early career researchers in the region. In this day and age, with concerns of ongoing high rates of infectious diseases, particularly in underprivileged populations, and emerging infectious diseases, supporting research in infectious diseases is more important than ever. Michael Alpers, my late partner and life member of ASID would also have been delighted to know of this initiative.”
