Evaluation of the NSW Health Early-Mid Career Grant Program 2024
The Office for Health and Medical Research has released the first evaluation of the NSW Health Early-Mid Career Grant Program.
NSW Health Early-Mid Career Grant Program 2023: Advanced Therapeutics Impact
Round 6 of the Early-Mid Career (EMC) Researcher Grant is now closed.
NSW Health invites promising EMC researchers to apply for EMC Researcher Grants focused on Advanced Therapeutics Impact. NSW Health is seeking to identify and fund EMC researchers who are ready to take their career to the next level by building and leading a multidisciplinary team which brings together expert researchers and clinicians with other key stakeholders to maximise research impact.
Eligible areas of research include:
- Nanomedicine, including basic, translational and clinical research
- Medicinal chemistry, including discovery and design of molecular and/ or macromolecular therapeutics
- Personalised and precision medicine, including pharmacogenetics and genomics
- Immunotherapy, including non-specific immunotherapy (interferons and interleukins), monoclonal antibodies, t-cell therapy and other immune effector cell therapy, oncolytic virus therapy and cancer vaccines
- Therapeutic targeting, including identification and study of key biological macromolecules that influence disease processes, or change in response to pathological conditions
- Cellular mechanisms, including transduction, senescence, cellular/organoid communication and molecular diagnostics
- Combination therapy, co-administration of multiple drugs through a single system
Only research projects that have potential to improve wellbeing and health outcomes for patients will be considered eligible.
EMC Researcher Grants aim to:
- fund research excellence among EMC researchers in NSW
- fund research that improves wellbeing and health outcomes for patients
- embed high-quality, innovative research in the NSW health system
- encourage collaboration, leadership and capacity building in the NSW research environment
- support EMC researchers to gain research grants and fellowships from bodies such as the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC), Australian Research Council (ARC) and Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF)
- bridge the gap between research, policy and practice to increase and document research impact and translation.
