Eligible applicants include PhD students or recently completed postgraduates whose research has or is being undertaken in a Victorian research institution in any field of health or medical research.

Past winners have demonstrated the depth of talent in Victoria’s health and medical research community through work in a variety of fields including muscular dystrophy, organ transplants, tuberculosis, diabetes, cancer research, cochlear implants and genetic research.

The winner and commendees will be announced at a ceremony to be held during Medical Research Week (1-8 June, 2013).
