TTRA Funding Information Session: Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease for Indigenous Health
MTPConnect’s Targeted Translation Research Accelerator (TTRA) program has opened a new funding round to support diabetes and cardiovascular disease research projects that address the unmet health and medical needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in rural, remote, regional, and urban centres.
To develop this Indigenous-specific round, MTPConnect has partnered with the Lowitja Institute to lead the priority setting and ensure the voices of Indigenous communities have been centred in every aspect of the process to determine the health priority areas that will receive research funding.
To find out more about the application process, project eligibility and selection criteria, listen in to this TTRA Information Session to hear from MTPConnect's TTRA team – Dr Mana Liao, Dr Erin McAllum and Dr Andionne Parlade, and Lowitja Institute’s Dr Michelle Kennedy, NACCHO’s Christopher Lee, Diabetes Australia’s Deanne Minniecon and AusHSI’s Megan Campbell. Applications close 28 April 2023.
