UNSW wins almost $35 mill in health funding



The University of New South Wales (UNSW) has won almost $35 million in funding for its medical research from the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC).


This represents more than a quarter of the total funding allocated to New South Wales-based research institutions from the prestigious funding body. A total of 42 grants were awarded to UNSW.

The funding includes a $12.5 million dollar five-year program grant to a team lead by Professor Colin Chesterman from the Centre for Vascular Research (CVR) at UNSW. This is a continuation of one of the largest and longest-running program grants ever awarded by the NHMRC.
