As a part of a broader restructure, the DDI is establishing formal research programs across four different therapeutic areas. Each therapeutic area will have one funded priority-driven program, in addition to broader networks events and activities.
Priority-Driven Programs should bring together a team of researchers around one goal, i.e. grand challenges; programs which address a specific health challenge or disease and have the capacity to leverage significant external funding within three years, such as, but not limited to, a NHMRC Synergy Grant. Successful programs will receive up to $100,000.00 per year for up to 3 years.
University of Sydney researchers from all disciplines and career levels (A-E) working in cardiovascular disease drug discovery are welcome.
The workshop will be an open forum to learn more about participating in the program, including:
- Introduction to DDI Priority-Driven Programs
- Overview of programmatic external funding schemes
- Research focus pitches from short-listed EMCR leaders
- Facilitated discussions on our strengths and gaps in cardiovascular disease research
