The Australian Medical Research Advisory Board, following its first meeting recently, is determining the MRFF’s Australian Medical Research and Innovation Strategy (Strategy) and related Priorities.
The Advisory Board has agreed to a two-stage consultation process to inform the development of these documents: the first stage is a public call for submissions, which is now open; and the second stage will follow in July with targeted consultation events.
A consultation paper (incorporating the building blocks for the Strategy) and a pro forma for articulating priorities, together with instructions for making a written submission until 6 June 2016 is available on the Department of Health consultation hub.
AusBiotech will be making a submission and members are invited to comment on the Draft, until 10.00am Monday 6 June, by contacting Lorraine Chiroiu, Chief Industry Affairs Officer (lchiroiu@ausbiotech.org or 0429 801 118).
