Aims |
The purpose of the NHMRC Research Fellowships Scheme is to provide opportunities for outstanding biomedical and health researchers with proven track records to undertake research that is both of major importance in its field and of significant benefit to Australian health and medical research. Research Fellowships offered by the NHMRC are prestigious awards and are, consequently, highly sought after and extremely competitive. Recipients of Research Fellowships are generally in the top 10% of their field. |

Eligibility |
Applicants must hold a PhD or equivalent research qualification. Applicants must be either an Australian citizen, an Australian Permanent Resident, or a New Zealand citizen. Applicants who have not yet been granted Permanent Resident status may apply provided such status has been sought and is likely to have been attained by the time the Fellowship must be taken up. Evidence that this status has been granted must be provided prior to commencement of the Award. Offers of a fellowship will not be held open beyond the acceptance date in anticipation of permanent residency being granted. |
