2025 Rethinking Emergency Medicine Research Grants
The Rethinking Emergency Medicine Research (REMR) Grants provides an opportunity for any SE Queensland university student to collaborate with staff from the PAH Emergency Medicine Department to effect change for patients and/or staff.
The project must be related to disciplines outside of the medicine, nursing and allied health areas but with an outcome directly applicable to the emergency department facilities, staff and patients. However, the applicant’s area of study can be within one of those disciplines, but their project must be outside those disciplines (e.g., a nursing student, who is a musician, can apply for a grant for a program involving music).
Examples of Eligible Project Areas
- Music
- Interior design
- Communication
- Transport
- Visual art
- Journalism
- Indigenous affairs
- Other (except medicine, nursing or allied health)
