Synergy Grants support outstanding multidisciplinary teams of investigators to work together to answer major questions that cannot be answered by a single investigator.
Overview
The objective of NHMRC’s Synergy Grant scheme is to support outstanding multidisciplinary teams of investigators to work together to answer major questions that cannot be answered by a single investigator.
The intended outcomes of the Synergy Grant scheme are to support:
- multidisciplinary research that addresses major problems in all areas of human health and medical research, from discovery to translation
- highly collaborative teams of diverse researchers including by gender, career stage and cultural background, working together to address major problems in human health.
The provisional funding allocation for the Synergy Grants 2023 round is $50 million. NHMRC’s Research Committee annually reviews and recommends indicative budget amounts to be awarded across individual funding schemes.
A Synergy Grant is awarded for a fixed 5-year term.
