Overview:

NHMRC wishes to call upon the expertise of the mental health research community in the area of child and youth mental health - an area of international significance to develop a stronger evidence-based approach to preventing the development of mental ill health.  This Targeted Call for Research (TCR) will provide $13 million of funding for the best researchers to build evidence and translate evidence to improved metal health practice.  Applications for this TCR in mental health is now open.

Consent to be a Chief Investigator (see 5.4 of the Funding Policy):

 The Chief Investigator A must seek agreement from other CIs (B-J) to be named on the application. The CIA will provide written evidence (e.g. an email) to the RAO of all CIs endorsement of the application. The RAO will then certify and submit the application in RGMS.  The RAO will not be authorised to submit the application to NHMRC until all Chief Investigators have completed this step.
