Research infrastructure grant applications made easier with BioGrid!

June 29, 2025

Research grant applications can be challenging and time consuming at the best of times, but when you’re applying for research infrastructure funding, it can become more complex.

You think you know what you want – but if you get the funding, will you be able to find the solutions for what you need with the funds available? How will you structure your funding request to ensure you can cover the process of defining your data requirements as well as the resulting solution?

An easier way is to work with a trusted research infrastructure provider when you’re writing your grant application. That way, you can ensure that your funding request covers everything you need so there are no surprises when it comes time to allocate and expend the funds.

BioGrid helps grant applicants define solutions and costs

BioGrid regularly works with researchers during the grant application process to develop data and technology solutions to bring their project ideas to life, and we have been involved with a number of successful applications in the past, including the National Cancer Cohort Platform and EINSTEIN (Enhancing Infection Surveillance to Transform Excellence In National cancer care) projects.

BioGrid can provide data platforms, collection tools, linkage, analysis and reporting to assist you with your research project, and we encourage researchers to include funding for BioGrid in your grant application.

We invite anyone who is considering applying for a MRFF Research Data infrastructure Grant and would like our assistance to contact us early for a consultation – designing appropriate solutions can take some time and we want to help you obtain the best possible result.

To ensure that you can utilise the services of BioGrid, we encourage you to include funding for BioGrid in your research grant application.

We can provide you with a quotation and description of BioGrid services and benefits to include in your application. Complete the Research Grant Quote Form and we will respond with a quotation and supporting information within two working days.

National Cancer Cohort Platform (NCCP): The National Cancer Cohort Platform (NCCP), funded by a Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF) grant, aims to create a digital asset that will bring together several influential national cancer cohort studies into one virtual location, including linkages to biospecimen repositories, and familial pedigrees.

EINSTEIN (Enhancing Infection Surveillance to Transform Excellence In National cancer care): EINSTEIN is a next-generation digital platform for providing clinicians with a platform for understanding and flagging infections. EINSTEIN draws on a digital learning health framework and data science to detect serious and emerging infections in the immune compromised cancer population.
