ABOUT THE PROGRAM

The Indo-Australian Biotechnology Fund (IABF) is a platform for bilateral collaboration in
science jointly managed and funded by the governments of India and Australia. The aim of
the collaboration is to promote & support cutting edge science and technology (S&T)
research by supporting: collaboration between Indian and Australian researchers in
strategically focussed, cutting edge, scientific research and technology projects; strengthen
strategic alliances between Indian and Australian researchers; and facilitate India and
Australia’s access to the global S&T system.

Since its establishment in 2006, the IABF has supported collaborative, leading-edge research between scientists in Australia and India across a range of jointly agreed upon priority areas. It has also helped to build linkages between premier research and educational institutions in both countries.

The Indo-Australian Biotechnology Fund is managed jointly by the Department of
Biotechnology (DBT), Government of India and Department of Industry, Innovation and
Science (DIIS), Govt. of Australia.

GRANT OPPORTUNITY UNDER ROUND THIRTEEN OF THE IABF

The objective of the round 13-COVID 19 under IABF is to fund short collaborative
research projects with tangible outcomes focused on responding to the COVID-19
pandemic.

  • bring together leading research institutions and/or industry in both India and Australia
    currently working on areas relevant to COVID-19 in the priority areas of this call.

    response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
