The Rapid Research Information Forum (RRIF) is a forum for rapid information sharing and collaboration within the Australian research and innovation sector. It is convened by the Australia’s Chief Scientist, Dr Alan Finkel AO FTSE FAA FAHMS, and its operations are led by the Australian Academy of Science.
In early 2020, the World Health Organisation (WHO) officially categorised the novel coronavirus outbreak (COVID-19) as a global health crisis, and subsequently a pandemic (global outbreak of an infectious disease).
