Emerging researchers will again be offered the opportunity to develop their careers thanks to funding from the 2021 Impact Seed Funding for Early Career Researchers (ECRs).

Funding of up to $10,000 will be awarded to each successful applicant. Project funds may be used for activities including achieving a key result or pilot study to underpin future funding applications; developing collaborations with industry or other partners; travel support to present current research findings at an international conference in your research field or accelerating progress in your existing research program(s) by facilitating additional resources (e.g. short term research support staff or consumables).

Applicants are encouraged to formulate their own grant submission that outlines how the funding will leverage and stimulate their research activities.

The application template and guidelines are available on the Flinders’ Internal Schemes webpage.

Any queries can be directed to Brad Budgen, Research Grants Officer, RDS.

Applications must be lodged by 9am Monday 16 August 2021 via the online submission form.
