The Australian Academy of Science congratulates the grant recipients of the Theo Murphy Initiative (Australia) grant funding for the 2026 round.
Established by the Royal Society to further scientific discovery, the Theo Murphy Initiative (Australia) is administered by the Australian Academy of Science and provides grant funding to support activities that provide tangible benefits to Australia's early- and mid-career researchers (EMCRs) in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
A total commitment of $260,000 has been allocated to support 23 applications with the grant recipients spread across Australia. These grants are distributed among four Flagship projects, five Amplify initiatives and 11 Participation Support grants which are expected to start implementation from January 2026.
