Season's Greetings from everyone at the Raine Study to all our researchers!
 
The Raine Study team wishes you a very merry festive season, good health, happiness and a relaxing break. We look forward to working with you on more life-changing research in 2023.
 

New projects submitted during the December/January shutdown period will not be approved before early February. Following that, the standard 6-8 week time period needed for project approvals will apply.

If your project application is related to a grant/fellowship application, please factor in this turnaround time to ensure that your project receives the required Raine Study approval before the submission deadline.

Data access requests submitted via our online submissions system ROSS during the December/January shutdown may not be completed until late January.

The first Scientific Management Committee meeting for 2023 will be held on Thursday 19 January.

The first Scientific Review Committee meeting will be held on Thursday 23 February , and 3-monthly after that.

For a full description of the project and data access request approval process, please visit the Researchers FAQ section of our website.

The Generations follow-up (Gen1-33 and Gen2-33 Year Follow-Up) is planned to commence in March 2023.

We are recalling both the Gen1 (the parents of those born into the study) and Gen2 (the babies  born into the study from 1989-1992) participants. The official name of this follow-up will be the Generations Follow-up (Gen1-33 and Gen2-33 year).

Collecting consistent samples from two generations will open up many new avenues for future research using Raine Study data, which in turn will add significantly to the ongoing value of the Raine Study to researchers in Australia and around the world. Find out more.
