Grants in Aid
Eligibility and Definition
The ARA Research Fund provides funding for several Grants in Aid each year. These are for short-term projects with well-defined aims, which can be achieved within a 12-month period. In some cases, grants-in-aid will address questions which complement established programs of research. Only new investigators and those undertaking allied health research are eligible for these grants, excluding physiotherapists unless they meet the criteria of a ‘New investigator’ (defined as within six years of receiving their PhD). Previous funding from Arthritis Australia and potential overlap with other sources of funding is taken into account.
The details of these can be found on the Arthritis Australia National Research Program website or on the Past recipients page here.
