International Research Funding Opportunities

Course description

Are you looking to expand your opportunities for research funding beyond the ARC and NHMRC?

If so, join us for presentations about international funding, including the French National Centre for Scientific Research (the CNRS), the European Union’s Research & Innovation Framework Programme—Horizon Europe, and more.

Professor Thierry Corrège, Regional Director, CNRS Representative for Oceania, will focus on the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS), which covers almost all domains of science through ten institutes. He will discuss the collaborative opportunities available and will discuss the tools CNRS use to foster and support international collaboration.

Nishant Shandilya, Regional Coordinator for EURAXESS Australia & New Zealand will focus primarily on the European Union's Research & Innovation Framework Programme—Horizon Europe and delve deeper into Pillar I (Excellent Science) and Pillar II (Global Challenges). He will also discussion the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA), European Research Council (ERC) Grants, ERC's Implementing Arrangements with NHMRC & ARC as well as NHMRC-EU Collaborative Research Grant Scheme. He will also present a high-level overview of Pillar II to showcase how and what involvement in collaborative research grants would entail.

Lynette Kelly, Research Partnerships Director, Flinders University, will discuss the benefits of expanding your funding opportunities to include international research, the value of forming international collaborations, and the support available to researchers at Flinders who want to build an international profile.

This session will be offered in a hybrid format; those attending in person will have an opportunity to network over morning tea.
