NHMRC Targeted Call for Research: Improving physical health of people with a mental illness 2022
A Targeted Call for Research (TCR) is a one-time request for grant applications designed to stimulate research in a particular area that will benefit the health of Australians or address a specific health issue.
NHMRC is considering opening a grant opportunity in late 2022 to invite research proposals that specifically focus on improving the physical health of people with severe mental illnesses.
This prospective opportunity will seek to stimulate research that will understand the barriers in accessing integrated multidisciplinary treatment for people with a mental illness, including detection, prevention and early intervention strategies in vulnerable populations.\
The outcomes of research will inform effective health services, policies, and guidance/training for providers, to better manage coexisting mental and physical health conditions.
