Publication of MREA Final Report Fields

Publication of MREA Final Report Fields

This notice is to advise of an important update regarding the publication of final reports submitted to the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC).

Selected fields from final reports for MREA grants which have been RAO-certified and submitted to NHMRC on or after 30 June 2025 will be published on the NHMRC website.

Fields to be Published

Please note that only the following selected fields from final reports will be made public:

  • Grant ID
  • CIA Name
  • Administering Institution
  • Grant Title
  • Summary of the research conducted and grant outputs
  • Details of the research outcomes and impacts, including reach, significance, and potential benefits to the Australian community
  • Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) for any openly accessible research outputs (including publications, datasets and other open accessible outputs).

The text from these fields will be published exactly as submitted by the grantee and will not be altered or edited by NHMRC. As such, it is the responsibility of CIAs and RAOs to ensure that free text fields do NOT contain sensitive or confidential information.

When providing the DOIs for any research outputs (including publications, datasets, preprints and other openly accessible outputs) that have been, or will be, made openly accessible by the due date for the final report, only provide the DOI.  Do not include other other identifiers such as website URLs or PubMed IDs.

We appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we implement this new process to improve transparency and accessibility of research outputs.
