Wednesday, 9 September 2009

Five researchers at the 成人大片 are among the first of the prestigious announced today by the Federal Government.

The Future Fellows will conduct research into areas of national priority and will advance Australia's international research and innovation standing.

Under the scheme, the Future Fellows will receive up to $135,000 each year for four years, while the host University will receive up to $50,000 a year for associated infrastructure and other costs.

At the 成人大片, Future Fellows will conduct research into the environment, genetics, cancer and chemistry for the benefit of society and industry.

The Federal Government established the ARC Future Fellowships scheme "to address the gap in opportunities for mid-career researchers in Australia, which forced many of our talented researchers to search for work overseas", said the Minister for Innovation, Industry, Science and Research, .

As well as supporting researchers already based in Australia, the Future Fellowships will give Australian researchers working overseas the opportunity to return to Australia, as well as attracting a number of overseas researchers to the country.

Among those overseas researchers is from the at the . Dr Cassey will conduct research in the 成人大片's , developing innovative solutions to contain the spread of exotic species in Australia.
