Website’s sponsorship policy

AusVaxSafety receives funding from the Australian Government Department of Health (link). NCIRS is the coordinating centre for AusVaxSafety.

Core funding for NCIRS research activities is provided by the Australian Government Department of Health and the NSW Ministry of Health. The Sydney Children's Hospitals Network and the University of Sydney provide infrastructure support. Additional funding for specific activities is occasionally obtained from various funding bodies such as the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC). These bodies have no input into NCIRS publications or to our editorial policies. NCIRS does not accept any funding from pharmaceutical companies or other for-profit industry sources. NCIRS has a policy governing the interactions of staff members with the pharmaceutical industry.
