$1.4M Grant Awarded to the NCSHSR team!

The National Centre for Sleep Health Services team have been successful in securing a $1.44M Partnership Grant from the Australian Department of Health and the National Health and Medical Research Council. The NHMRC’s Partnership Project scheme supports translation of research through effective integration of research evidence into health policy and service delivery. The NCSHSR will be conducting a trial entitled: "Improving the management of Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Insomnia in General Practice".

The NHMRC’s Partnership Project scheme is designed to create partnerships among decision makers, policy makers, managers, hospitals, service providers, clinicians and researchers by supporting them to work together to design, undertake and implement the outcomes of the research.

Huge congratulations to Professor Robert Adams and the team!
