Grant Description
The Centres of Research Excellence (CRE) 2026 scheme provides $3,000,000 over five years to support collaborative, high-quality research teams in basic science research, clinical research, health services research, and public health research. Its purpose is to improve health outcomes and enhance the translation of research findings into policy and practice. The program fosters capacity building within the health and medical research workforce, supports innovative and collaborative research, and expands opportunities for partnerships between research teams.
