Professor Chris Semsarian AM, Head of the Centenary Institute’s Agnes Ginges Centre for Molecular Cardiology, has featured in an article in Research Australia’s Inspire Magazine outlining the importance of philanthropy to medical research.
The article highlights how the philanthropic support of Mrs Agnes Ginges and her husband, the late Mr Berel Ginges (facilitated by eminent cardiologist Professor David Richmond), was critical to the Centre’s formation.
