note = "Funding Information: Likewise, the NHMRC provided the authors with data for the same 10-year period from 2011 to 2020, received in October 2021. The NHMRC awarded $8,407,854,815 in grants. Of this funding, $565,088,022 (6.72%) was awarded to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health, noting that for a research project to qualify as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health research, only 20% or more of the research effort and/or capacity building must relate to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health. From this amount, five projects, totalling $2,442,870, were reportedly awarded exclusively for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander male health. Close inspection of the data and review of the five projects, however, found that one, worth $783,280.68, was not focused on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander men but was a men's health project focused on all Australian men and their subsequent publications have not specified the number of Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander men included in the study. We deem this project, misclassified and have removed it from the data including in table 1 and Figure 1. The adjusted figure for funding exclusively for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander male health is $1,659,589.85, equating to 0.29% of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health funding.",
