Psychology, green ammonia, improving our understanding of sleep and companion planting for pollinators are some of the research areas that have been awarded funding in the recent Australian Research Council (ARC) Future Fellowships announcement.
“It’s wonderful to see our researchers’ success in their bids for ARC funding. Their dedication to advancing knowledge and innovation has been rightfully recognised under the ARC Future Fellowships. From housing ownership to women’s intellectual history, promoting pollination to optical computing, the projects will focus on crucial areas for progress in Australia and uncover new pathways for investigation,” Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research) Professor Emma Johnston said.
The Australian Research Council (ARC) announced $106.7 million in funding for 100 new projects under the ARC’s 2024 Future Fellowships scheme.
“The ARC Future Fellowships scheme plays a significant role in facilitating research excellence in areas of national and international interest,” ARC Acting Chief Executive Officer, Dr Richard Johnson said.
“The breadth of topics that will be investigated in this round of the Future Fellowships scheme is a reflection of the ARC’s commitment to supporting outstanding mid-career researchers to undertake high quality research for the benefit of all Australians.”
These new Future Fellowships are awarded to outstanding mid-career researchers, who will receive funding support for the next four years.
