Acting Vice-Chancellor Margaret Harding congratulated all ARC grant recipients, especially those from ANU. "It's great to see ANU win two more grants and almost $3 million more in Commonwealth Government funding compared with last year," said Harding. "Importantly, our success rate for Discovery Grants leads the nation (30.08 per cent) on par with the University of Western Australia (30.22 per cent) compared with a sector average of 21.3 per cent. ANU researchers received 71 out of 732 grants worth more than $24 million.
