The purpose of the Foundation is to improve the health of New Zealanders through funding the highest quality medical research of all kinds.

​

AMRF’s research funding area is limited to all recognised tertiary institutions and district health boards (DHBs) in the greater Auckland and Northland region of Aotearoa New Zealand. The principal investigator/grant holder must be affiliated with a host institution within this area, and the majority of work should be undertaken within this area, but co-applicants can come from, and part of the research can be performed, outside our catchment area – either nationally or internationally.

​

Several categories of funding are available. 

 

Please refer to the specific guidelines for each funding application and check the submission dates.​

Please note: host institutions may have earlier internal deadlines.
