Grant Description
The Suzanne Cavanagh Mid-career Investigator Grant supports mid-career researchers in Western Australia to advance their careers in cancer research and strengthen their competitiveness for national research funding. Administered by Cancer Council WA under the Strategic Priority Program – Capacity Building in partnership with the Future Health Research and Innovation (FHRI) Fund, the grant provides up to $60,000 (ex GST) for a one-year research project commencing in 2027. The program aims to retain and develop talented researchers working on cancer-related studies—including laboratory, clinical, epidemiological, psychosocial, or behavioural science—to improve prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and understanding of cancer while strengthening Western Australia’s health and medical research workforce.
