  • grants funded as four-year grants
  • applicants are able to apply for up to $250,000 per year (up to $1 million over four years).

The Grants are open to researchers employed by an eligible NSW based organisation. The schizophrenia researcher must reside in or plan to move to NSW for the duration of the grant and must be employed by an NSW-based medical research institute, university, or non-government organisation.
