MRFF 2022 Frontier Health and Medical Research Grant Opportunity

This Tender is invited by the Issuer. This grant opportunity offers funding to support medical research and medical innovation programs of research that deliver a ‘moonshot’ by creating a treatment for a currently serious and incurable health condition, through a series of linked projects. The program of research can propose to develop novel health technologies and/or repurpose existing health technologies in a novel way. The initial application process to secure funding through this grant opportunity will be conducted in two stages: expression of interest (EOI) – outlining a proposed program of research comprising of a series of linked projects with a 10-year time horizon full application, (invitation only – following EOI) for a project of up to 5 years under the program of research. Applicants may propose to commence research at any stage in the research pipeline from proof-of-concept, with the intention of achieving full implementation of the proposed technology in 10 years. Funding for subsequent projects under the program of research that continue to progress the technology towards full implementation can be sought by submitting additional full applications to this grant opportunity (i.e. applicants do not need to recommence with an EOI). These applications may be submitted by invitation only. We expect that expressions of interest will close on 31 March 2027, with the last grants awarded by 30 June 2028.
