Key Changes to the 2015 NHMRC Project Grant Application Process

Funding Rules and supporting documents for the 2015 Project Grant round are now available and applications will open in RGMS on 14 January 2015. 

Please note the following key changes to the application process:

• Applications must be initiated and the minimum data completed in RGMS by 17:00 AEDT on 18 February 2015.  Applications that fail to satisfy this requirement will not be accepted.
• All chief investigators on a NHMRC New Investigator (NI) or Cancer Australia Young Investigator Project Grant application must confirm their eligibility by completing a mandatory NI online form by 17:00 AEDT on 21 January 2015 and indicate their NI status within RGMS.
• Chief Investigator A (CIA) citizenship waivers are no longer required.  Where the CIA is not an Australian citizen or permanent resident, they must have the requisite work visa in place at the time of accepting the successful grant and will remain in Australia for at least 80 percent (%) of the funding period.
