ASMR wishes to pass on the following message to ASI members.
Dear Affiliate Members,

The ongoing lack of investment into the NHMRC grant schemes has highlighted that Australia is missing out on the benefits of a lot of great research. Help us show Australians and our government what we could achieve if the NHMRC had greater investment.
