Infrastructure Grants

The NHMRC provides funding annually for overhead infrastructure costs especially for NHMRC accredited independent medical research institutes based on a proportion of competitive research funding being administered by the institute.

Introduction

The IRIISS was established in response to recent reviews that have found overhead infrastructure costs for independent medical research institutes to be substantial. IRIISS commenced in January 2005.

Apply for Funding

No formal application is required for Infrastructure Grants but institutes are only eligible if they are NHMRC accredited independent medical research institutes. Equipment Grants and Independent MRI Infrastructure Grants are calculated by allocating funds pro rata to the NHMRC health and medical research grants held by your institution in a particular funding year.

Institutions must advise the NHMRC of how the equipment to be purchased will enhance competitively funded research.
