Our Partners
At ASMR, we believe that advancing Australian health and medical research requires more than advocacy alone. It takes a strong, connected ecosystem of organisations working toward a common purpose.
Our partnerships are built on shared values: a commitment to research excellence, the advancement of Australia’s health and medical research workforce, and meaningful support for the researchers driving discovery. By working alongside organisations that align with our mission, we are better placed to support PhD students and early-career researchers with the tools, training, and networks they need to thrive.
Together with our partners, we are building a more sustainable and supportive environment for Australian health and medical researchers.
The GrantEd Group
Founded in 2014 by Kirsten Bartlett and Lyn Airey, The GrantEd Group has grown into a trusted partner for researchers nationwide, supporting thousands of researchers to secure over $1 billion in competitive funding by delivering practical, highly regarded grant development support.
Driven by the belief that great research can change the world, GrantEd’s work aligns closely with ASMR’s role as the peak professional society representing Australian health and medical researchers and our vision for providing high-quality support for medical researchers to succeed in their chosen careers.
This partnership reflects a shared commitment to strengthening Australia’s research ecosystem and supporting researchers at every stage.
ASMR members will benefit from a 50% discount* on GrantEd’s on-demand grant development products, improving access to high-quality support and training.
