Highlights

RGBD: CDU Pure Research Information System Information (RIS), Guides and the Login here

Research Professional Research Professional has recently introduced Fingerprints, a new feature providing researchers with suggested funding alerts based on a profile created from their previously published work reported on Charles Darwin University's website. You will be receiving a weekly email containing selected research funding opportunities that match your Fingerprint every Saturday. This email will come from [email protected] or [email protected], if you have not seen it, please check your SPAM folder to whitelist this email. Research Professional (RP) is an online database that is designed to assist researchers to search for funding opportunities in all disciplines from a wide range of national and international funder or sponsors. The Office of Research and Innovation (ORI) maintains the subscription to RP and provides free access for Charles Darwin University researchers. Research Professional is now accessible through the CDU portal. Instructions on how to access RP and how to create a RP account through the CDU portal are available at this link: How to access Research Professional through CDU Portal (410kb). The video of “Identifying Funding Opportunities” seminar which was held on 2nd August 2019 at CDU Campus, Casuarina is available at https://web.microsoftstream.com/video/5edeb2b8-3cda-40a9-9ae5-04660ceeb3a4?st=38.

Could be used by various health campaigns beyond the campaign in which the innovation is originally conceptualized or tested, such as for immunization (measles, yellow fever, meningitis, etc.), neglected tropical diseases (trachoma, onchocerciasis, schistosomiasis etc.), nutrition (vitamin A, deworming), malaria (bed net distribution, seasonal malaria chemoprophylaxis), and polio. Could be used in various low- and middle-income countries beyond the country in which the innovation is originally conceptualized or tested. Can be designed, tested, and scaled as a "best practice". Can be applied in low- and middle-income countries. Are cost effective. Awards are worth up USD 100,000 for 18 months in the first phase. Those granted funding in this phase may apply for follow-on awards worth up to USD 1 million each for up to two years. Closing date: 13 Nov 19

Investigator Grants National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) Investigator Grants consolidate separate fellowship and research support into one grant scheme that provides the highest-performing researchers at all career stages with funding for their salary (if required) and a significant research support package. These grants provide the investigator with flexibility to pursue important new research directions as they arise and to form collaborations as needed, rather than being restricted to the scope of a specific research project.

Investigator Grants support: research across the four pillars of health and medical research: biomedical, clinical, public health and health services research different career stages – early career researchers, mid-career researchers and established researchers researchers with clinical responsibilities (such as clinicians, public health and allied health practitioners) full-time and part-time researchers. The expected outcomes are: flexibility for investigators to pursue important new research directions as they arise and to form collaborations as needed innovative and creative research opportunities for researchers at all career stages to establish their own research programs reduced application and peer review burden on researchers.
