Poche Centre Marks Major Growth in Indigenous PhD Success in 2025

The Poche Centre for Indigenous Health has marked an outstanding year in 2025, with significant milestones achieved across Indigenous research and higher education. With the dedicated support of the Poche team, four Indigenous PhD students have successfully completed their doctoral studies, representing an important contribution to Indigenous-led scholarship.

Alongside these completions, the Centre has welcomed a strong new cohort of emerging researchers. Ten new Indigenous PhD candidates have either commenced or are scheduled to begin their studies in 2025, reflecting a continued rise in interest and engagement with the Centre’s programs.

Further details on these achievements will be shared as they become available, but these results already highlight a year of meaningful growth and reinforce the Poche Centre’s commitment to supporting and expanding Indigenous leadership in research and academia.
