RESEARCH SERVICES BULLETIN

NEWS

NHMRC MRFF Investigator Grants are Now Open
Investigator Grants consolidate separate fellowship and research support into one grant scheme that provides the highest-performing researchers at all career stages with funding for their salary (if required) and a significant research support package. These grants provide the investigator with flexibility to pursue important new research directions as they arise and to form collaborations as needed, rather than being restricted to the scope of a specific research project. Minumim Data Due 31 October 2019.
Visit the Grant Connect website for details.
