The annual award is to provide funds to Fellows and trainees of the Australasian College for Emergency Medicine (ACEM/the College) who have limited research experience, to assist them in developing and enhancing their research skills and experience. The monetary sum of the grant is $30,000 AUD.
It is the responsibility of applicants to ensure that all eligibility and application requirements are met at the time of application. While applications will be checked to ensure validity, applicants will only be advised where requirements are not met if there is adequate time to do so in the context of normal administrative processes. No extensions will be granted to the closing date and time for applications where eligibility and application requirements are not met.
Al Spilman generously supports this Grant to further emergency medicine research.
