Call for Ramaciotti Foundations Health Investment Grant applications

The Ramaciotti Foundations Health Investment Grants are now open.  See details here.  And guidelines are here.

The grants support individuals in undertaking health or medical research with a potential path to clinical application within five years.  Grants are aimed at autonomous early-career investigators, who are taking or have recently taken a substantive position. 

Under the guidelines, Monash may submit a maximum of three applications and no more than one from any given department. Therefore there will be an internal ranking process.

In order to facilitate the ranking process all intending applicants will need to:
  • Confirm matching university support with HoS/HoD (this is a condition of application)
  • Complete (but don't submit) an application in Perpetual Trustee's online application system
  • Create a PDF of the application and send this to the Medical and Health Sciences Team mhs@monash.edu by COB 19 May.  
Applications will then undergo a ranking and the three top applicants will be informed so that they can finalise and submit the online application via the Perpetual’s system (please note that Perpetual has advised that any applications made directly to them and not endorsed via the MRO will be deemed ineligible and removed from their system).  

I understand that this opportunity is not available to all faculties but in order to avoid anyone being missed and submitting directly to Ramaciotti and then being excluded could I please ask you all to communicate this information to researchers via your networks?

Key dates
19 May - all applications due to MRO
25 May - applicants notified of shortlisting outcome
29 May - shortlisted applicants submit to Ramaciotti Foundations
