Key messages:
• Research impact is MUCH more than publications
• Research impact foci are dependent on the grant type
• Research impact weighting is dependent on the grant type
• There are challenges inherent in measuring research impact
• Partnerships and relationship building with researchers and
research office would be helpful to drive culture change
• Communication skills are important
• NHMRC has begun to focus on more than just publications
