About Us: mRNA Core is an RNA synthesis and delivery-focused facility located at Monash Institute of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences (MIPS) and led by Professor Colin Pouton.
Currently funded by an MRFF mRNA Clinical Trials Enabling Grant and the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS), the facility is one of the four national nodes of the RNA Products Capability of Therapeutic Innovation Australia (TIA).
The facility specialises in the design, development and quality control of messenger RNA (mRNA) products and is supported with production and analytical equipment at both the gold standard and the cutting edge, including several first-in-Australia machines.
External users can also benefit from applying to the TIA Pipeline Accelerator voucher program for subsidised access to the facility (see link below).
