The Western Australian Institute for Medical Research (WAIMR) was established in 1998 as a collaboration between the University of Western Australia (UWA), Royal Perth Hospital, and Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital.

Wesfarmers provided an initial donation of A$5 million, and has been the institute's major sponsor ever since.
