ASA Research Grants

Through the annual ASA Research Grant, funding is available to support one or more research projects each year.

Total funding of AU$30,000 is available to support and facilitate sonographers to undertake new research that contributes to the sonography practice.

Specifically, this funding supports members to undertake quality research which will then lead to publications and contribute to the evidence base of sonography.

ASA Accredited Medical Sonographer members are eligible to apply for an ASA Research Grant. The opening of applications for the next round of funding will be announced on the ASA website and members will also be advised by email.
