Grants

The PRF offers three types of grants.

  1. Seeding grants are for new researchers working on new or established research projects.
  2. Tagged grants are for researchers working on new or established research projects in a specific area of physiotherapy using ‘tagged’ funds.
  3. General grants are for projects to integrate research evidence into clinical practice, promote research or conduct non-clinical research.

Applications for general grants will be considered throughout the year.
