SUMMARY:MRFF International Clinical Trial Collaborations
DESCRIPTION:The objective of the Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF) – 2026 International Clinical Trial Collaborations Grant Opportunity is to provide grants of financial assistance to support medical research and medical innovation projects that: \n\nPromote Australian involvement in international collaborative investigator-initiated clinical trials research through the establishment and co-ordination of clinical trial site/s in Australia.\nProvide high-quality evidence of the effectiveness of novel health treatments\, drugs or devices in ‘usual care’ settings\, which will support a decision on whether to deliver the intervention in an Australian setting.\n\nThe anticipated outcome of the research funded by this grant opportunity is to improve the health and wellbeing of Australians by investing in new clinical trials that support increased access to high-quality\, evidence-based and effective health care. \nPlease note the 2026 MRFF International Clinical Trial Collaborations grant opportunity will be open for one round only. \n\nKey Dates:\nMinimum data due: 19 August 2026\nApplications close: 16 September 2026 \nSEE GRANT GUIDELINESSEE WEBSITE

SUMMARY:CDMRP Melanoma Research Program
DESCRIPTION:The Melanoma Research Program (MRP) released program announcements for the following funding opportunities: \n\n\n\n·        Focused Program Award – Rare Melanomas  \nThis award supports a multidisciplinary research program of at least two\, but not more than three\, distinct but complementary research projects addressing an overarching question relevant to rare melanomas. \n·        Idea Award \nThe Idea Award supports innovative\, exploratory\, high-risk/potentially high-reward research. Novelty and innovation are expected to be key aspects of the proposed project. By the end of the Idea Award funding period\, the anticipated outcomes of successful efforts should establish proof of principle and obtain preliminary data to secure follow-on funding. \n·        Melanoma Academy Scholar Award \nSupports the addition of independent\, early career investigators (Scholars) who are no more than seven years from their initial faculty appointment to the Melanoma Research Program (MRP) Melanoma Academy. The Melanoma Academy is a unique\, interactive virtual academy focused on bringing together established investigators and Scholars to develop a network of successful\, highly productive melanoma researchers in a collaborative research and career development environment. \n·        Survivorship Research Award \nThe award addresses the relatively new and underfunded area of melanoma-specific survivorship by supporting a broad range of innovative and impactful research that has the intended outcome of improving the health and well-being of melanoma survivors\, their families and/or their care partners in the near term. Proposed studies focusing exclusively on animal models or considering survival only without consideration of quality of life\, overall health and/or function are not responsive to this funding opportunity. \n·        Team Science Award \nSupports a broad range of hypothesis-driven\, multidisciplinary studies that have a short-term goal of advancing the state of the science in melanoma research and/or patient care. Team science is a synergistic effort that harnesses techniques\, approaches and perspectives from multiple disciplines and/or therapeutic areas to address complex\, multi-dimensional problems that will impact patient outcomes. \nKey Dates: \nSubmission Deadline (Pre-application-Pre-Proposal): 13 July 2026\nFocused Program Award – Rare Melanomas\nIdea Award\nTeam Science Award \nSubmission Deadline (Pre-application-Pre-Proposal): 22 September 2026\nMelanoma Academy Scholar Award\nSurvivorship Research Award \nApplication Submission Deadline: 14 October 2026 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSEE GRANT GUIDELINESSEE WEBSITE

SUMMARY:NHMRC Partnership Projects
DESCRIPTION:The Partnership Project funding scheme provides funding and support to create new opportunities for researchers and policy makers to work together to define research questions\, undertake research\, interpret the findings and implement the findings into policy and practice. \n\nPartnership Projects create partnerships among decision makers\, policy makers\, managers\, clinicians and researchers and answer a specific research question to influence health and wellbeing through changes in the delivery\, organisation\, funding and access to health services. \nPartnership Projects will support collaborations\, within the Australian context\, that translate research evidence into health policy and health practice\, to improve health services and processes. \nThe objectives of the Partnership Project scheme are to: \n• Meet the need for more effective integration of research evidence into health policy and service delivery\n• Create partnerships among policy makers\, managers\, service providers and researchers\n• Provide support to answer often complex and difficult questions that policy makers\, managers and service providers face when making decisions and implementing policies that affect Australians’ health and health care\n• Be highly responsive to the priorities of government\, the community and health professionals\n• Enable applicants to apply for funding at any time during the year to allow researchers and Partner Organisations to develop timely collaborations. \n\nKey Dates for Peer Review Cycle 2:\nApplications open: 19 March 2026\nNHMRC-approved Administering Institutions waiver due: 8 July 2026\nMinimum data due: 22 July 2026\nApplications close: 5 August 2026\nPeer review meetings: 17-19 November 2026 \nKey Dates for Peer Review Cycle 3:\nApplications open: 23 July 2026\nNHMRC-approved Administering Institutions waiver due: 14 October 2026\nMinimum data due: 28 October 2026\nApplications close: 11 November 2026\nPeer review meetings: 2-4 March 2027 \nSEE GRANT GUIDELINESSEE WEBSITE
