SPHERE Champions NHMRC Collaborations in Health Services Research Grant 2024
The NHMRC Collaborations in Health Services Research Grant (CHSRG) aims to support small-scale research projects that are crucial for health services and their communities. It emphasises fostering partnerships that drive innovation and translate research findings into scalable health care practices. This initiative seeks to increase collaboration and build research and translation capabilities among health services, researchers, and communities.
SPHERE is providing support across its partnership to potential applicants for the CHSRG, ensuring a robust and coordinated approach to bid development. This includes assisting with project matching, coordinating applications, and offering guidance on aligning research proposals with the grant’s objectives. Applicants are encouraged to submit a one-page project proposal by July 19, 2024, to facilitate SPHERE's support in identifying suitable grant applications.
SPHERE is also committing up to $100,000 per successful grant application as partnership support, contingent on confirmation of indicative support and grant success.
“By championing the CHSRG, SPHERE is paving the way for innovative health services research, fostering collaboration, and enhancing the translation of research outcomes into practical, scalable health care solutions. This initiative builds on SPHERE’s existing Health Service Grant seed funding, offering a pathway to larger-scale research and collaboration schemes,” explains SPHERE Executive Director, Professor Chris White.
