This grant is offered by the ANZBMS in memory of Christine Martin and to honour the outstanding and major scientific contributions of Professor T Jack Martin to bone and mineral research and his contributions to associates and trainees in teaching, research, and administration.

The aim of the Grant is to facilitate travel to undertake bone and mineral research in any aspect of basic or clinical science. It is expected that travel would be initiated in 2009.

The award is open to financial members of the Society, and preference will be given to applications from members who are in the training phase of their careers.

Applications up to $15,000 (AUD) will be considered, based on merit, and funded with consideration of the proposed budget. Proposals may include attendance at major conferences and visits to laboratories, but the major purpose should include a substantially justified cooperative project, or acquisition of expertise in a particular technique or techniques. These should result in publishable outcomes, facilitate progress or completion of a higher degree, provide preliminary data for applications to major granting bodies or service to the Bone and Mineral Community.

Eligibility criteria

Any financial member of the ANZBMS with continuous membership for 12 months, or more, will be eligible to apply. Preference will be given to members in the training phase of their careers, and current members of Council are not be eligible to apply. Applicants with a PhD or MD degree (or equivalent) should have completed this degree within the past 10 years.

Selection

A sub-committee of the ANZBMS Council will make a decision on the applications and may seek up to 2 independent referees. Awarding of the grant in each year will depend on the quality of applications. Based on the number and quality of applications, the Grant may not be awarded in some years at the discretion of Council. Notification of the awarding of the grant will be made at the ASM.
