(AAL). One of the primary GWDC activities is to maintain and develop a series of large-scale projects -- the current list of projects can be found on the GWDC website (<a href="https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/sZTCCNLJyQU0020qkI4oZcG?domain=gwdc.org.au/" target="_blank">https://gwdc.org.au/</a>). With renewed funding in FY 21/22, the GWDC would like to call for expressions of interest for new large-scale projects to potentially be supported through this scheme.</div><div><br></div><div>Interested parties should submit a one or two paragraph expression of interest that outlines briefly the science, scope, and maturity of the proposed project. This EOI phase is designed solely to determine whether project applications are better suited to this scheme, or to the GWDC/ADACS Merit Allocation Software Support Programs. Successful EOIs will be invited to work with GWDC staff to prepare a full application (which will involve not more than a two-page proposal), outlining the project, personnel, strategic vision, prospective milestones and KPIs, and an estimate of the required FTEs (noting that the amount of FTEs allocated to projects will depend on demand, availability, and assessed scientific merit).</div><div><br></div><div><b>Expressions of interest are due</b> <b>Friday, March 19</b>.
