New $1m joint investment to kick start medical research

Posted on by

Sydney Medical School at the University of Sydney and philanthropic organisation The Balnaves Foundation are giving next-generation medical leaders a kick start via a new $1m program to boost the competitive grant funding success of early career researchers.

The 'Early Career Researcher Kick Start Grants' is a new three-year joint initiative made possible through a significant commitment by The Balnaves Foundation. The gift will build on a successful seven-year investment program by the medical school, which is solving a major challenge facing all early career researchers.

"Early career researchers are the lifeblood of all successful medical research projects and face an increasing battle for grant funding due to their limited body of work, lack of experience and intense competition," says Professor Bruce Robinson, Dean of Sydney Medical School.

"But they face a classic dilemma: they need research expertise to receive grant funding, but they need grant funding to develop research expertise."

Currently only 15 per cent of all National Health and Medical Research Council grant applications are successful, a figure that has declined steadily over the past five years.

Today, 28 early career researchers from Sydney Medical School have received 'Kick Start' grants to fund pilot projects that will help them compete for future competitive grant funding, and help shape the future of medical research in Australia.

"The partnership between Sydney Medical School and the Balnaves Foundation will provide a crucial building block, upon which early career researchers can take a significant leap forward in their career and contribute towards meaningful health outcomes," says Neil Balnaves AO, Founder of the Balnaves Foundation.

"It is an example of how philanthropic partnerships can significantly help to address key national issues and provide support for outstanding medical research in Australia."

"Young people often have 'out of the box' ideas and this type of research is often where breakthroughs occur. We want the novel ideas of these 28 young researchers to have the opportunity of coming to fruition and are excited to follow their progress over the next few years," says Mr Balnaves.

The joint program is modelled on the Sydney Medical School's seven year investment to build the capacity and necessary experience for early career researchers to succeed.

Liberty University Hosts Simulated BioTerror Attack

Posted on by

Lynchburg, VA- A group of students at Liberty University learned how you would respond to a bioterror attack Saturday morning.

The demonstration involved the State Police and was at the Vines Center. The students learned that there's a whole lot to responding to a bioterrorist attack.

The Virginia State Police Counter Terrorism & Criminal Interdiction Unit led the demonstration.

"We've heard not only from the news media ,but from throughout the world, there are attacks on Christians, there are attacks throughout the world. And we're trying to prepare not only our students but local law enforcement agencies about how to handle a bioterrorist attack," said Dr. James Mcclintok, the director of Forensic Science at Liberty University.

This simulated fog represents a dangerous micro-organism contaminating the air.

"Everyone's afraid of a biological weapons attack, but no one really knows how to respond if it occurs of what to do, they're just be wide-spread panic. So the more education there is for the public, the greater the chance lives will be saved if one of these events does occur," said student Samuel Giovanucci, a Strategic Intelligence Major.

Liberty University students first needed to learn how to properly test it.

"It could potentially cause harm to us, our health and cause illness or even death. So we're looking at the release of a biological agent and then our students will identify that agent for identification purposes," said Mcclintok.

Students signed up to participate, some working on forensics, criminology, or biology classes, others just wanted to learn more and be prepared.

"Trying to prepare our students when they enter the working environment, how to be better prepared for such an attack," said Mcclintok.

Liberty Lady Panthers get 16-0 win at Tarkington with five homers in five innings

Libertys Lady Panthers were on fire at Tarkington Friday evening, March 27. They beat the LadyHorns, 16-0, in five innings that included five home runs.

The scoring started quick. Catcher Jewel Moody hit a line drive to center for a single, then Kaitlyn Slack hit the first of her three home runs in the game.

Next up, Kurstin Martin doubled on a grounder to left field and went to third on Andee Geters line-drive single to right. Katie Harris got a walk. Then Martin scored on a passed ball. Macy Tanton connected, and the outfield error that let her reach first also let both Geter and Harris make it home to put Liberty up, 5-0, in the first inning.

After Tarkingtons fly out, strike out, and ground out, Liberty was back up to bat for a walk, another Moody single, and a second Slack home run, putting the score at 8-0.

Megan Hogan got a single for Tarkington in the bottom of the second with a line drive to left field, but then she was caught with Hillary Jackson in a double playSlack to Parker to Martin.

In the top of the third, Tanton singled, hitting a liner to left field. Madisyn Frazier got on base with a bunt that advanced Tantons courtesy runner, Lacey Vaughn, to second, but Vaughn was put out at third on a fielders choice that let Kamryn Parker reach first.

After third baseman Lauren Henson caught Moodys popup for the second out, Slack homered again to bring in Frazier and Parker.

Then Martin hit a solo homer to make the score 12-0.

Tarkingtons MacKenzie Tyler doubled in the bottom of the fourth on a line drive to left field.

In the fifth, Slack was walked to first. Shauna Harrell put Martin out, catching her fly ball to right field. Then Geter hit a fly to left for a single, and Katie Harris lined one over the centerfield fence for Libertys fifth home run of the game.
