Successful Equipment Grants 2009

NHMRC has announced $9 million in funding to help institutions buy larger items of equipment to support competitively funded health and medical research.

The funding has been provided under NHMRC’s 2008 Standard Equipment Grants scheme, which is designed to assist ongoing competitively funded medical research across Australia.

Under the scheme, institutions are encouraged to buy equipment that will be used collaboratively and, where possible, Australian-made. Institutions are also encouraged to consider the lack of access to similar equipment in their institution and region.
