Forecast Opportunity View - Centres of Research Excellence 2020
NHMRC Centres of Research Excellence 2020
The objective of the CRE scheme is to improve health outcomes and promote or improve translation of research outcomes into policy and/or practice. The CRE scheme will also support researchers in capacity building activities, including in specific areas of need identified by NHMRC.
Applicants should note the following key changes for the CRE 2020 grant opportunity:
- All successful CRE applications will be awarded a fixed total budget of $2.5 million. Applicants are no longer required to submit detailed application budgets.
- The CRE in Population Health Research stream has been renamed the CRE in Public Health Research to create consistency with NHMRC’s Broad Research Areas terminology. Renaming this stream does not affect the scope of research funded under the stream.
- The applicant team interview has been removed from the peer review process.
- Additional funding may be available to support health and medical research on the health effects of radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy (EME).
Please note the naming convention for CRE grant opportunities has changed. As such, the 2019 CRE for funding commencing in 2020 round is now referred to as the CRE 2020 grant opportunity.
