02 Nov Congratulations to our 2022 Research Grant Recipients
For over 50 years, our primary objective has been to support the highest quality Australian research into brain diseases, disorders, and injuries. The applications this year were, as always, a fantastic insight into the talent, dedication, and curiosity of Australian researchers.
We are excited to announce that our grants program is continuing to rebuild after the challenging events of 2020, and we are able to fund 13 projects this year. We would like to thank the members of our Scientific Committee for volunteering their time and expertise to assess these applications.
However, the effects of the pandemic, natural disasters, and inflation are still lingering. We are working to bring our funding back to regular levels so that we can continue to give out more grants each year. We will always work to do more to support researchers, patients, and their loved ones.
The recipients of our 2022 grants are representative of the high quality research happening in Australia. You can read all about their projects on the following pages.
Finally, we extend our sincere thanks to our donors, fundraisers, and corporate sponsors. Almost everyone has been touched in some way by a brain disease, disorder, or injury. Your support makes research possible so that we can improve our understanding of these conditions, and work towards finding new treatments and cures.
