The Hermon Slade Foundation (HSF) supports research projects in the biological or biophysical sciences. Grants are awarded to Australian institutions for activities within Australia. Occasionally activities located in countries of the south west Pacific may also be funded.
The Foundation provides support, on a competitive basis, for three types of activity:
- The top priority is to encourage high quality research by scientists in Australian national or state institutions, and universities.
- Periodically, capital grants may be made to help finance equipment or facilities which are needed to encourage relevant studies by either scientists or the general community within Australia.
- Occasional support may also be given to such activities as training, publications or conferences.
Funding & Duration
Typically the HSF provides project grants up to AUD $30,000 per year, for up to three years.
