2019 Perpetual Trustees Ramaciotti Health Investment Grants - EOI APPLICATIONS NOW OPEN

Appliations are now open for the 2019 Perpetual Trustees Ramaciotti Health Investment Grants. A Health Investment Grant is intended to provide enabling research support for an autonomous early career investigator (no more than 10 years post-PhD as at 1 January 2019) who is taking or has recently taken a substantive position. It is expected that up to seven grants will be awarded in 2019.


Applications may be made for a contribution of up to 50% (to a maximum of $150,000) of the total cost towards the proposed project. A Health Investment Grant is subject to the host institution providing a matching grant of the amount requested and raising the balance (if any) of the full cost of the proposed project. The matching grant must be cash for cash (not in-kind) but can include the salaries of project personnel (excluding the salary of the Chief Investigator).  It is the expectation that the matching funding will be provided by the successful applicant's School or Department in alignment with their research strategic plan. The Faculty will not be providing a contribution to the matching funding.

As per the guidelines for this scheme, Monash University may only submit a total of one application per department, up to a maximum of three (3) applications across the University.  As such, there will be Faculty and cross-Faculty review and ranking processes to select the top 3 applications.

Intending applicants are required to prepare an Expression of Interest (EOI) application using the attached template and submit to the Faculty Research Office (medicine.research@monash.edu) by no later than 5:00PM (AEDT) on Thursday 4 April 2019.

The 3 shortlisted Monash applicants will be advised to proceed with their full application submission and entry of their application into Pure on or soon after 3 May 2019.  Final applications are due to the Ramaciotti Foundation by 5pm on 31 May 2019.
