The Theo Murphy Initiative (TMI) was established by the Royal Society to further scientific discovery. The fund is administered by the Australian Academy of Science and provides grant funding to support career development opportunities for Australia’s early- and mid-career researchers (EMCRs) in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Applicants will need to demonstrate how the proposed activity will support EMCRs knowledge development in the relevant STEM related field(s) of research.
Australian EMCRs can apply for a participation support grant to assist with the cost of attending and participating in an event or activity.
Dr Nguyen was awarded $3050 to support his attendance at two international conferences in Portugal in 2024.
