The ARC has released their new set of grant schemes ▶️ www.arc.gov.au/news-and-pub... Before implementing them, they’re now going to “consult with the sector”. Hopefully genuinely, not just with a few disengaged DVCRs. In the meantime, there’ll be another round of Discovery Projects (DP28).

"Unfortunate but inevitable" 😜 More on the completely unworkable grant time-frames ARC recently introduced (up to 16 months!) & the 'oh well, maybe it'll improve?' responses provided by ARC reps in Senate Estimates. By @jsresearchpro.bsky.social for @resprofnews.bsky.social. No paywall.

ARC is up at Senate Estimates this Thursday (12Feb) at 8pm (Canberra) – somehow not last on the agenda. I really hope they're questioned about the completely ridiculous & unworkable time-frames they introduced for all grant schemes (e.g. 16 months for DPs!)👇 * Still 3rd last but before ANU & TEQSA

The Australian Biomedical Research sector is in crisis due to years of chronic underfunding. We recently asked Australian researchers how they felt about their career prospects. This is a word cloud based on their responses 😢🧪

Right now, the Government is starving medical research of full funding, even as it claims that science and research are national priorities. If our leaders truly value science as much as they say, then they must back their words with action—and fund it properly. Join the campaign!
