This Merdeka and Malaysia Day, Health & Living celebrates iconic institutions of healthcare, from institutions of education, to research and health services. In this episode, we're spotlighting an institution older than Malaysia itself - the Institute for Medical Research. While the IMR may not be a familiar name to many, it has played an important part in advancing medical research in diseases unique to Malaysia and this region.  We speak to a former and the current directors of the institute to find out more about its work and milestones.
