SUMMARY:RACP Research Awards and Career Grants
DESCRIPTION:Through the RACP Foundation\, we’re able to offer financial support to Fellows and trainees pursuing careers in medical research. Over 50 different fellowships\, scholarships and grants are available annually\, totalling over $2.5 million in funding. \nCareer Development Fellowships are intended for mid-career researchers who completed their research higher degree over 7 years ago and/or researchers who are not eligible for either Research Entry Scholarship or Research Establishment Fellowships. \nResearch Establishment Fellowships are available to Fellows and Advanced Trainees who want to establish themselves in a research career. \nResearch Entry Scholarships provide up to $45\,000 stipend support to Advanced Trainees and Fellows who are at the start of their research careers\, helping them undertake a Masters\, PhD or equivalent higher degree and build a foundation for a future in medical research. \nResearch Development Grants provide from $10\,000 to $30\,000 in funding for smaller research projects for beginning researchers. Applicants can undertake a short-term or part-time research project. \nTravel Grants provide from $10\,000 to $30\,000 funding to support RACP trainees and Fellows undertaking short periods of research\, study or international collaboration. \n\nKey Dates\nApplications close:\nCareer Development & Research Establishment Fellowships: 30 June 2026\nResearch Entry Scholarships: 7 July 2026\nResearch Development Grants: 24 July 2026\nTravel Grants: 31 July 2026 \nOutcomes advised: December 2026 \nSEE WEBSITE

SUMMARY:TOUR DE CURE Annual Grants
DESCRIPTION:We are proud to open a new Annual Grants Round in 2026\, made possible by the continued support of our community\, partners\, and fundraisers. \nThis year’s Grant Round is open to applications in the following categories: \n• Early Career Research Grant\n• PhD Scholarship\n• Prof Richard Scolyer Award for Brain Cancer Research for Early\, Mid and Senior Career Researchers \nThe Tour de Cure Grants Committee follows an ethical\, independent\, and transparent selection process when reviewing applications. \nWe are committed to funding innovation and excellence\, using our resources to support the best Australian-based projects and researchers. As a cancer-agnostic organisation\, we consider applications across all cancer types. \nDemonstrating a rigorous selection process\, choosing the strongest projects\, and maintaining sound project governance – all grant applications are assessed on merit. \nAn EOI (Expression of Interest) is required for all research grant categories listed. EOIs are reviewed in Round One by the Tour de Cure Grants Committee. Successful applicants are then invited to submit a full grant application in Round Two\, which is assessed in detail by the Grants Committee who then makes recommendations to the TDC Board for final decisions in December. \nInstitutions supporting individual researchers may submit no more than two applications per grant category. This limit applies even where an intermediary body\, such as a foundation\, applies on behalf of the researcher. There is no limit on the number of PhD Scholarship applications but please be mindful of your submission numbers. \n\nKey Dates:\nExpressions of Interest open: 1 August 2026\nExpressions of Interest close: 21 August 2026\nExpressions of Interest outcomes notified: 8 October 2026\nFull grant applications open (by invitation): 9 October 2026\nFull grant applications close: 24 October 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
