Equipment Grants

The NHMRC allocates funds to the University of Adelaide to be distributed and reported to NHMRC. Teams may seek funds to purchase equipment to be used in health and medical research, as supported by the NHMRC and other competitive grant support.

The NHMRC has clearly defined objectives for awarding Equipment Grant funding, which are:

• The need for Institutions to be strategic in the purchase of larger items of equipment that will benefit health and medical research in Australia;
• Institutions are encouraged to support equipment that will be used collaboratively; and
• Where possible, Australian-made equipment should be purchased.
