SUMMARY:DEADLINE: MRFF 2023 Global Health Grant Opportunity
DESCRIPTION:This grant opportunity was announced as part of the Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF) under the Global Health Initiative. \nThe objective and intended outcome of this grant opportunity are aligned with the following Australian Medical Research and Innovation Priorities 2022-2024: \n\nantimicrobial resistance\nglobal health and health security.\n\nConsistent with the Medical Research Future Fund Act 2015\, the objective of this grant opportunity is to provide grants of financial assistance to support Australian medical research and medical innovation projects that: \n\ngenerate knowledge to improve understanding of healthcare associated infections in hospitals that drive antimicrobial resistance. This includes understanding the incidence\, pathways and drivers of transmission\, and\ndevelop\, implement and/or assess the effectiveness of interventions to reduce the incidence of healthcare associated infections in hospitals that drive antimicrobial resistance.

SUMMARY:DEADLINE: DISCOV3R Program Application
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of the DISCOV3R Program is to investigate Rapid Antigen Tests (RATs) as a sustainable long-term testing solution for COVID-19.‘3R’ refers to the three streams of the Program: Reassure; Reclaim; and Repurpose. \nThis Program aims to take a holistic approach to the use of RATs in the detection of COVID-19 infection\, which includes their effective use\, shelf life and responsible disposal. \nThe Activity must align with one of the 3R streams: \n\nReassure\nResearch into the accuracy and sensitivity of RATs in detecting emerging COVID-19 variants. High quality applications to this stream will demonstrate an accurate and repeatable methodology for assessing RATs\, a feasible plan for accessing and testing COVID-19 variant samples\, and a competitive budget.\nReclaim\nResearch into the expiry dates of RATs to determine shelf-life validity\, factors impacting shelf-life and whether RATs can be used to diagnose COVID-19 beyond the stated shelf-life. High quality applications to this stream will demonstrate an accurate and repeatable methodology for assessing RATs\, a robust and thorough plan for testing variables that may affect shelf life\, and a competitive budget.\nRepurpose\nIdentify opportunities for re-purposing of RATs that are beyond their shelf-life\, for example for research use for COVID-19 and/or other coronavirus diseases. High quality applications to this stream will identify and test innovative and significant uses for RATs.\n\nFunding between $100\,000 and $350\,000 will be awarded to the top-ranked application in each stream. Subject to budget availability and the quality of applications received\, additional applications may be awarded funding. \nProgram status: Open for Applications \nApplication Form due: 1:00 pm (AWST)\, Thursday 6 April 2023
