A National Heart & Diabetes Institute
Baker IDI Heart and Diabetes Institute is the nation’s premier health and medical research institute tackling the deadly trio of obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Our work extends from the laboratory to wide-scale community studies.
Baker IDI fills a void in health and medical research by allowing traditionally disparate groups to work together and collaborate under one umbrella and one organisational culture.
