Nutrition Biomed Research Institute - NBRI

NBRI is a dynamic multidisciplinary research institute focusing on links between diet and cancer.

Nutrition Biomed Research Institute (NBRI) is dedicated to bringing diet to the forefront in the fight against cancer. Our mission is to raise the importance of the role of nutrition in cancer prevention and management, via research in this field. While it can vary between specific cancer sites, it is generally considered that around 30-35% of all cancers can be attributed to diet. Therefore, we b

elieve that with the promotion of clear and appropriate evidence-based nutritional recommendations, we can help to significantly reduce the incidence of cancer and improve the lives of those affected by the disease.

Did you know that an increasing number of young Australian adults are being diagnosed with advanced bowel (colorectal) cancer?

In a new blog, our researcher Austin explores this worrying trend and discusses what the current evidence tells us about the potential role of diet in addressing this growing challenge.

What an incredible day on the course! ⛳️

Our inaugural Wens Brinkman Memorial Fundraising Golf Day at Beaconhills Golf Club was a big success filled with great golf, plenty of laughs, and an amazing show of support for a worthy cause.

A huge thank you to Phil, Lynda, Raelene, and the team at NBRI for helping bring the day together, as well as to all the golfers who took part and made the event so enjoyable.

We’re especially grateful to our generous supporters and sponsors: Access4, BG Private, Bodega, Climate Rental Solutions, DCM Lawyers, G & T Plumbing, and The Bottle-O Pakenham. Your support made this day possible.

We’re already looking forward to making next year even bigger and better!
