UNSW Sydney (the University of New South Wales) and Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE) have announced the names of 10 joint-grant recipients under the newly established UNSW-MAHE Collaborative Research Seed Funding Scheme.

The seed funding scheme is part of the UNSW-MAHE Landmark Partnership for education the two institutions announced last year.

Quoting UNSW president and Vice-Chancellor of UNSW, Ian Jacobs, a statement said that these grants will help academics at both universities bring the collaboration to life.
