The AXA Research Fund – Chairs campaign The AXA Chair is a highly selective funding scheme intended to support significant advancements in the development of a research area within a host institution in line with the institution’s long-term strategy. It aims at creating a full-time academic position in the host institution and fostering a step-change in the career of the appointed AXA Professor. The host Institution must intend to create a permanent full-time position. The prospective Chairholder is expected to be at least PhD + 10 years minimum, to be of the highest calibre and should have demonstrated outstanding research achievements. The research program should demonstrate its scientific originality and innovative nature. The research program should contribute to better understanding uncertainty and addressing global risks notably in the areas of climate and environment, health, and socioeconomics and new technologies. The AXA Research Fund’s grant can amount up to €1 million and is awarded for a period of 5 years. The grant will be paid in yearly instalments (up to 200 000 € maximum per year). Curtin can present only ONE CANDIDATE (not one per department, faculty, or laboratory) therefore ROC is calling for Expressions of Interest to be submitted to ROCRelationships@curtin.edu.au by COB, 26 September 2023 (Personal details of the prospective Chairholder, Research program details (title, area (Health, Environment, or Socioeconomics)) and brief research program description, and a short CV (maximum 3 pages) of the prospective Chairholder). Should more than 1 EOI be received they will be assessed with the assistance of the Deans of Research to determine the EOI to proceed.
