The NHRMC Investigator Grant Guidelines 2026 define Research Impact as:
"Research impact is the verifiable outcomes from research and not the prospective or anticipated effects of the research. For example, a prospective publication linked to the applicant’s research program is not demonstrated or corroborated impact.".
This guide provides a list of tools and help resources to assist you in finding evidence of the four types of impact defined by the NHRMC in the grant guidelines
Not all examples listed in the grant guidelines are included in this guide - only those where it was possible to find a tool that may assist in finding evidence.
Please contact your Liaison Librarian for assistance with using the tools and finding evidence.
