Azelle Hawdon: ARMI’s newest social media ambassador
ARMI student Azelle Hawdon has a keen eye for detail.

A Message from the Director
2020 has been a challenging year. When anything like an existential threat descends on an organisation or a community, you never quite know where it’s going to lead.

ARMI Relaxes and Refreshes
Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown, ARMI instigated its COVID-safe workplace plan to enable our critical regenerative medicine research to continue.
