Archived Grant Opportunity View - GO3005

The objective of the NHMRC’s Investigator Grant scheme is to support the research program of outstanding investigators at all career stages. It consolidates salary and research support into a single grant scheme by offering a salary component (if required) and a research support package.

The intended outcomes of the Investigator Grant scheme are:

• flexibility for investigators to pursue important new research directions as they arise and to form collaborations as needed
• innovative and creative research
• opportunities for researchers at all career stages to establish their own research programs
• reduced application and peer review burden on researchers.

The NHMRC’s Investigator Grant scheme may also be used to fund Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF) Investigator Grants through the Investigator Grants: MRFF Priority Round. MRFF applicants must also complete the Translational Outcomes MRFF template provided in this Grant Opportunity. Further information on requirements for this priority round are available at:https://www.grants.gov.au/?event=public.GO.show&GOUUID=2B9D3F48-CD1D-C264-7355BC7AE665CAD4
