Deadline: 25 May 2016
The National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) is seeking applicants for its Program Grants in order to provide support for teams of high caliber researchers to pursue broad based, multi-disciplinary and collaborative research activities.
The scheme is available for all research approaches relevant to better health – biomedical, clinical, public health or health services research and is typically for 5 years.
The National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) is Australia’s largest health and medical research funding body. NHMRC provides activities to:
- raise the standard of individual and public health throughout Australia;
- foster the development of consistent health standards between the various states and territories;
- foster medical research and training and public health research and training throughout Australia; and
- foster consideration of ethical issues relating to health.
Eligibility Criteria
- Institutions must be approved as an NHMRC approved Administering Institution to be eligible to apply for or receive NHMRC funding
- While the CIA, Fellow or Scholar typically conceives and writes the application and is the person with primary responsibility for the scientific oversight and management of the Research Activity, it is the Administering Institution which is funded under the NHMRC Funding Agreement. All applications for NHMRC funding must therefore be submitted through the RAO of an NHMRC approved Administering Institution.
How to Apply
Applications must be submitted electronically using NHMRC’s online Research Grants Management System (RGMS) unless otherwise advised by NHMRC.
