The HRC relies on experienced researchers to assess our funding applications. Researchers are invited to join an Assessing Committee based on their expertise relative to the breadth and scope of the funding applications received.

We are particularly interested in recruiting individuals with the following expertise: vision (ophthalmology), dentistry (odontology), surgery, Māori health, Pacific health, artificial intelligence, genetics and epigenetics, and clinical trials.

If you would like to nominate yourself to participate in a future Assessing Committee, please update your HRC Gateway profile and tick the option 'Yes, I would like to be nominated for an HRC assessing committee'. Please also update the 'fields of research' section to reflect your expertise. Alternatively, you can email Audrey Alipate, Investment Process Manager, at aalipate@hrc.govt.nz to express your interest.
