Biobank Interim Support Program 2021
The Future Health Research and Innovation Fund’s Biobank Interim Support Program 2021 provided bridging funds to high-quality WA biobanks to ensure they could transition to a new biobank model, once it was determined.
Applicants were required to meet a criterion of ‘excellence’, which is demonstrated through Total Research Income of at least $1,000,000 from 2018-2020. For the purposes of the Biobank Interim Support Program 2021, Total Research Income consisted of competitive grant income and a dollar value attributed to PhD students for projects based on or using samples and/or associated data from the biobank.
While this program has now closed to applications, the Biobank Interim Support Program 2021 Guidelines and Conditions and Application Form can be accessed below for reference:
