About the MRFF
The Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF) is a research fund set up by the Australian Government in 2015. In December 2023, it grew to $22 billion. The net interest from the fund pays for important health and medical research projects.
Why is the MRFF important?
The MRFF is important because it:
- allows Australians to benefit from life-changing medical discoveries
- funds research according to national priorities, filling gaps in areas that need more research
- helps our researchers develop their ideas in Australia
- develops Australia's growing biotech industry, creating future jobs and exports
- builds stronger relationships between researchers, healthcare professionals, governments and the community
- invests in all research stages — from research ideas, through laboratory research and trials, to the final commercial product.
We direct MRFF funding to 4 overall research themes, focused on patients, researchers, research missions and research translation.L
