Have you noticed our new name?
In late 2009 the Board of the Child Health Research Foundation of WA (Inc.) enthusiastically adopted our new name- BrightSpark Foundation Inc. We love BrightSpark as it is full of vitality and life. A spark has unlimited potential. With the right encouragement, it can grow from a tiny flicker to a mightly flame. Who knows what exciting things our innovative BrightSpark scientists might achieve?
Meet our Patron- Professor Lyn Beazely AO - WA's Chief Scientist
It is with great pleasure that we announce that Professor Lyn Beazley has graciously accepted the role of patron of the Foundation.
