Eligibility Project Grants are available to all researchers working in the field of research relevant to health. The maximum number of Chief Investigators (CIs) allowed on a Project Grant is 10, but should normally have no more than 6.

The Chief Investigator A (CIA) is the investigator responsible for completion and lodgement of the application in RGMS. It is generally required that, at the time of application submission, the CIA is an Australian citizen or permanent resident. The CIA must be based in Australia for the duration of the grant.

Individuals are limited to holding a maximum of 6 Project Grants as Chief Investigator. The maximum number of applications a Chief Investigator may submit in any year will be 6, less the number of NHMRC Project Grants that are scheduled to continue in 2013.
