Exploring latest announcements of yet more Australian taxpayer funds being thrown at Academia's public health research projects - of which Australians are still poorly equipped to understand.
"I believe that MandEval's (Mandate Evaluation's) primary research objective is to ameliorate as much potentially attributable risk and liability to stakeholders, members of academia and governments alike."
Yes.
"I admit I'm not fluent in academic tertiary systems of education or how grant application procedures operate."
It's a club composed of the GO8 universities. Quality doesn't usually matter, only narrative.
"Medical Research Future Fund" may not be a competitive grant in the traditional sense but a cash funnel. Get a FOIA request from UWA Research Office and ask for the terms of the grant contract and the grant application (if one exists) as well as the ethics declaration. It's taxpayer funded so not commercial in confidence.
Thanks very much for the quick reply. I'm thinking "Cash funnel" for MRFF as well.
VaxPolLab, run and managed by Katie @ UWA School of Social Sciences Campus seems to be where most funds go for Vaccination Social Sciences research and projects. Wesfamers Center for Virus and Infectious Disease + Telethon Kids Institute seem to have of their projects re: vaccine policies and social sciences now sent to VaxPolLab.
The ethics declarations should be publicly available?
Curious interview. I switched off the MSM years ago, but this was strange.
The questions asked were legit ones of the type we ask.
The responses were glib, hurried and non-committal. She definitely had those questions beforehand.
She was too bubbly, and spoke to fast, no time to slow down the conversation and actually think about the questions posed, like in a normal interaction.
I watched it again a moment ago. Pay attention to her eyebrows and when they hit the roof. She is so scripted, so meticulously constructing her persona for the purpose of convincing viewers of how necessarily important Vaccination Social Sciences are..
All the while stating next to no information or unequivocally making a point.
Appreciate your sentiments and wonder about survival. Ive survived, so have you and many others like us. Part of me wants to pursue a strategic counter offensive where new ideas and tactics are deployed for them to try surviving through.
Being able to conduct investigations is the necessary first stepm

Scary is the new normal.
It gets scarier before it gets scarier!
