South Australian Health and Medical Research Institute Trust
Tips for Applicants
Given this is a research institute rather than a traditional grant-maker, direct funding opportunities may be limited (Annual Giving is only $25,000). Approach through research partnerships, collaborative projects, or by aligning proposed research with their four thematic priorities, particularly Aboriginal Health Equity which represents Australia's largest dedicated Indigenous health research unit.
Giving Philosophy
As a health and medical research institute, SAHMRI conducts its own internal research programs across four thematic areas rather than operating as a traditional grant-making foundation. It values translational research that addresses real health challenges, with strong emphasis on Aboriginal health equity and reducing health disparities in South Australia.
