ASMR Professional Development Webinars

What does it mean to be fundable today?

Presenters: Prof Vera Ignjatovic AM (Chief Scientific Officer, Veliro) and James Dromey (Founder and CEO, Veliro)
When: Wednesday, 23 September 2026
Time: 4 – 5pm AEST (will be extended for questions if necessary)
Cost: FREE for ASMR members and non-members, but an ASMR members only offer will be made at the end of the webinar.

Researchers know that funding has become less predictable and is increasingly tied to impact, collaboration and scale. Scientific excellence remains essential, but it is no longer sufficient to ensure funding success.

Join Prof Vera Ignjatović AM and James Dromey to explore the wider factors signalling credibility, capability, and potential return to funders.

The ASMR’s vision is for a healthy and equitable Australia. There is no doubt that a significant gap remains between the health outcomes of First Nations people and other Australians, and the ASMR will continue to work towards closing this gap.

The ASMR believes that our diversity is our strength: health and medical research belongs to everyone, and everyone belongs in health and medical research.
