2019 FMNHS Early Career Researcher (ECR) Publication Prize 2019 - APPLICATIONS NOW OPEN

The Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences (MNHS) is committed to developing Faculty-based Early Career Researcher (ECR) initiatives to assist our ECRs in the development of their research careers.

In addition to the emphasis placed on a strong track record in research publications and competitive funding, there is also the requirement for ECRs to secure competitive Prizes & Awards.  In support of this, the Faculty Research Office offers the FMNHS ECR Publication Prize.

ECRs are invited to nominate one 2018 research publication for the 2019 FMNHS ECR Publication Prize [EPP 2019]. Six ECR Publication Prizes are awarded per year, with one prize allocated for each Faculty-based broad discipline:

1. The Robert Porter Prize for Laboratory Based Sciences;
2. The John McNeil Prize for Public Health Research;
3. The Henry Krum Prize for Clinical Sciences;
4. The Jenny Keating Prize for Nursing and Allied Health;
5. Social and Educational Research; and
6. The Jenny Redman Prize for Psychological Sciences.

Two Faculty prizes will also be awarded for the best publications from ECRs who hold an externally-funded Fellowship.
