The JCU AITHM Clinical Research and Training Facility on Thursday Island is adjacent to the Torres Strait Hospital and enables research, training and community engagement.

The JCU Thursday Island campus has been named Ngulaigau Mudh, which means means “house of knowledge” in the dialect of the Kala Lagaw Ya, a traditional language of the Torres Strait.

The facility provides teaching, research and learning facilities for JCU students in the Torres Strait region at the northern tip of Australia.

The community space provides an ideal platform for engagement and collaboration with the Torres Strait community and the hospital service to ensure translation of findings.
