Funding for pathogen genomics research

The Genomics Health Futures Mission - Flagships - Pathogen Genomics grant opportunity provides researchers with grants of up to $10 million. You can apply for large scale pilot research studies into pathogen genomics late in the research and development pipeline. These studies should aim to demonstrate clinical and/or public health utility, cost-effectiveness, and capacity for translation of genomics in the clinic.

The Genomics Health Futures Mission (GHFM) is the centrepiece of the Australian Government's National Health and Medical Industry Growth Plan.

The $106 million Flagships stream forms part of the GHFM and will be delivered over 9 years from 2019-20 to 2027-28 through a number of rounds.

This grant opportunity is the first round of the Flagships stream.

This round allows you to apply for funding between $1 million and $10 million. You can apply for up to 100% of eligible project costs. You must complete your project by 30 June 2023.
