The session will cover research outputs, activities and award management, as well as introducing the CDU Research Web Portal. For more information, please contact [email protected]. To access resources about RIS and the research activity data collection process, please check our SharePoint page.

2018 IAS Rainmaker Grants We are pleased to let you know that Rainmaker 2018 is live. The IAS Rainmaker aims to encourage growth in revenue from sponsored research (i.e. based on external funds) through application support and preparation. It is not designed to fully fund research activity or to support independent research and scholarship. IAS Rainmaker is funded by RBGs. IAS Rainmaker will be flexible in its approach to support growth in revenue from sponsored research and innovation. It consists of 4 interconnected schemes outlined in the guidelines. See further: http://www.cdu.edu.au/research/ori/funding [view IAS Rainmaker tab with guidelines and application forms]. Please note applications for Proof of Concept Grants (Scheme 2) are subject to competitive review and will be accepted when the POC budget amount is determined, likely in Q2, 2018. Feel free to remind colleagues about this opportunity.

IAS Rainmaker Readiness Grants and Leverage Funds Readiness Grants (formerly Proof of Concept Grants): EOIs for IAS Rainmaker Readiness grants, formerly Proof of Concept grants, to support larger, ‘pilot’ or preparation research are now open. The scheme has been updated to place more emphasis on applicant(s)’ research track record as well as the prospect of securing external funds. The on-line form is available here with a closing date of COB Monday, 20 August 2018. Leverage Funds: Leverage funds are offered to satisfy the requirements or expectations for institutional cash contributions by some funders. They are typically made available for sponsored research and innovation funding proposals. These funds are only made available when contracts are executed. Closing date: Funds for 2018 will continue to be provided until fully committed.

Australian Research Council The Australian Research Council (ARC) funds research and researchers under the National Competitive Grants Program (NCGP). Funding includes:

support for high-quality research leading to the discovery of new ideas and the advancement of knowledge

financial assistance towards facilities and equipment

support for the training and skill development for the next generation of researchers

incentives for Australia's most talented researchers to work in partnership with leading researchers throughout the national innovation system, internationally, and to form alliances with Australian industry.

There are two main funding streams available - Discovery and Linkage - under which the ARC funds a range of complementary schemes to support researchers at different stages of their careers, build Australia's research capability, expand and enhance research networks and collaborations, and develop centres of research excellence. A major component of Linkage is the ARC Centres scheme, which brings together leading researchers from around the world to work collaboratively on specific research problems. The Centres scheme is administered independently of the other components of Discovery and Linkage. For further information on the ARC funding available, please click on the links below:

Pure

Now online! To grow our business in an increasingly competitive research and higher education environment, we have to discover and adapt to new opportunities, and expand our horizons by connecting and collaborating. And we need to get smarter at how we deploy our precious personnel, financial and infrastructure resources, which means greater transparency and accountability, and increased, focused support for project management. In 2017 we will be implementing several innovations designed to enhance delivery of research support services. A coming initiative is the Pure research management system from Elsevier, which is being adopted by many Australian and international universities. In Pure, every researcher will have an online User Interface and Public Portal. Researchers have the best knowledge about their projects and activities, and thus will be responsible for maintaining their own Pure records. Approvals and milestones will be simplified and automated through the web interface. Research activity and outcomes will automatically form an online public fingerprint. An accurate, updated public profile and smart informatics will serve us well as we enter a new age of connectivity and impact.
