Agree

Yes

The Nationals Party generally supports government investment in medical research, especially when it benefits rural and regional communities, which often face healthcare access challenges. The party has backed funding for medical research through programs like the Medical Research Future Fund. While they may have some reservations about ethical or regulatory aspects of genetic engineering, they are not ideologically opposed to scientific research for disease prevention and treatment, especially if it can help rural Australians.
