The aim of the Jack Brockhoff Early Career Medical Research Grants Program is to further strengthen world class research capability in Victoria by helping establish the careers of talented young scientists.
The Foundation seeks to help support early-career researchers to demonstrate their scientific originality and their capacity to complete, relatively independently, a discrete study for publication in scientific literature.
The Foundation intends these grants to assist talented young researchers to build a CV that enables them later to compete successfully for research positions and research grants, and to establish the foundation of a career in research. Grants of up to $75,000 a year for one or two years are available. This grant is aimed at research relevant to the understanding the causation, prevention, detection, treatment and palliation of conditions affecting the health and well-being of populations or population groups.
Applications for the Jack Brockhoff Foundation Bold Futures - Early Career Medical Research Grants will only be considered from research scientists with less than 3 research-active years after successfully completing their PhD examination. (Research-active means time engaged in full-time research). Please note that applicants must have an approved PhD before submitting an application. Applicants must also be employed by an NHMRC Approved Administering Institution to be eligible.
