Refresh of the MRFF Assessment Criteria (October 2022) – MRFF has refined the descriptors for the criteria used to assess MRFF grant applications to ensure the MRFF supports the highest quality health and medical research to improve the health and wellbeing of Australians, and better support applicants and assessors to submit and review applications.
