The Academic Unit of General Practice (AUGP) is a community resource committed to providing excellence in health education. Based at The Canberra Hospital, we are jointly funded by ACT Health and the ANU Medical School.
The AUGP has developed research activities that encompass child health, integrated service development, clinical research, individual routes to health and healing, social determinants of medical care, and scholarship in teaching and learning.
Indigenous Australians are much more likely to be hospitalised for diseases and conditions than non-Indigenous people. At the ANU Medical School, we are committed to ‘closing the gap’ by training doctors who have a deep knowledge and understanding of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health issues.
