DEADLINE: Theo Murphy Initiative (Australia)

The Theo Murphy (Australia) Fund was established to further scientific discovery and supports activities that aim to provide tangible benefits to Australia’s early- and mid-career researcher (EMCR) community. The fund is administered by the Academy on behalf of the Royal Society and provides grants for activities and events that support the fund’s purpose.

In this round, TMIA will support at least three Flagship activities empowering transformative initiatives, up to seven Amplify activities demonstrating potential to amplify the impact of existing projects or initiatives, and several Participation Support grants to assist with the cost of attending and participating in an event or activity.

Applicants will need to demonstrate how the proposed activity will support knowledge development in the relevant STEM-related field(s) of research.
