MRFF Grant Opportunities - Summary of the multiple open (and forecast) schemes
The beginning of 2021 will be busy for MRFF grants with multiple grant opportunities open, or soon to open, across the MRFF schemes. These grants have been opened in batches so below is the summary of information currently available on all open and forecast schemes. Please let Karen McConalogue know if you have any questions or will be applying for these grants.
IMPORTANT ELIGIBILITY NOTICE re: NUMBER OF APPLICATIONS YOU CAN APPLY FOR: Please note that under MRFF guidelines the rules now generally limit the number of applications. Usually (not always) the limit is that a person must not be named as a Chief Investigator (CI) on more than one application submitted to a specific grant opportunity OR where streams exist within one grant then an applicant may be restricted to one application per Stream. It is vital that applicants carefully read the eligibility rules for each grant opportunity as the rules can vary across MRFF schemes. IF IN DOUBT PLEASE CONTACT Karen McConalogue.
