Research Grants

This is an exciting opportunity to drive your research idea forward and secure substantial support for your project. A total funding pool of A$30,000 will be awarded to one or more innovative research projects. 

The ASA is proud to offer Research Grants to encourage sonographers to undertake new research that contributes to sonography practice. Specifically, this funding supports ASA members to undertake quality research which will then lead to publication and contribute to evidence-based practice within the profession. Submissions will be considered for partial or full funding of your project.

Clinical Audit Grants

ASA Clinical Audit Grants provide a total funding pool of A$10,000 which is available to support two Clinical Audit projects, each of up to A$5,000 value.

The clinical audit will be led by a sonographer working in clinical practice and will compare current clinical practice against a well-defined standard. Applications should clearly outline a clinical audit project that has the potential to improve the safety quality, efficiency and effectiveness of sonography services. Submissions will be considered for partial or full funding of your project. 

Clinical Audit Grants are offered in partnership with Marsh Advantage Insurance.
