Almost time for

Feels like a lifetime ago we could hold in in-person. Thank you
@thecsanz
and the organising and scientific committees. Well done

on your presidency ❤️
Looking forward to council meetings today to get the ball rolling
Shout out to all those working super hard on
#nhmrc
#investigatorgrant
- super tough to prepare, so many sections, so much
#content
to collate
✨Especially thinking of all the
#ecrs
who have never experienced anything like it - collating, drafting, getting
#feedback
so tough
Another question - have others heard from
#researchoffice
that
#mrff
grants next week cannot include publications from 2022
#nhmrc
This is causing major stress and is challenging for
#emcr
grants where many papers are recent -now 2 business days to redo?
How are others going?
@nhmrc
is there anyway we can get a bit of clarification for
#investigatorgrant
outcomes?
Does the
#nhmrc
tracker actually mean “by September” or should it read “in September”…feeling sorry for the many anxious applicants waiting day by day
How are all the
#emcrs
#mrff
have multiple grants due bang in middle of school holidays
#nhmrc
have a gender equity document saying the will avoid school holidays! It’s also tough in research office teams….
I am sorry so many people are scrambling atm
It feels very intimidating to continue preparing a
#nhmrc
#investigator
grant
The goal posts seem to keep shifting yet one works towards these things for years in advance...
Day 1 back - I already have
#anxiety
and feel not good enough.
How are others feeling?
Have spent today reviewing and giving advice to 5 x
#nhmrc
#investigatorgrant
applicants. Each one is really strong and I think all are amazing researchers with amazing futures.
Shout out to all the amazing researchers working on one of these applications
@AcademicChatter
Feels like yesterday when
#nhmrc
fellowships consisted of a proposal and almost the entire rest was auto-populated from
#rgms
- feels like a lifetime ago!
Now researchers spend 1000s of hours pouring over a series of creative writing pieces....how are we all feeling about it?
How is everyone going with
#nhmrc
#investigator
grants? How many hours/months/weeks do you think you have spent? Can someone do a study and evaluate this - time spent, anxiety, ability , loss of personal time, loss of family time etc etc
❓Is anyone concerned about the feasibility of researchers writing
#nhmrc
#investigatorgrant
proposals 1.5 years before funding starts and finish almost 7 years later?
⁉️Seems a lot could change in science, medicine and society over that many years?

Do Australian researchers who have submitted recent

grants (eg EMCR, clinician-researcher, consumer calls etc) think "review finalised" notifications will go out to successful people while unsuccessful ones remain
