The new investigator grant supports early career researchers and academics to become independent researchers through gaining experience and skills in managing and leading research projects and teams.
The social sciences must represent more than 50% of the research focus and effort.
The research networking scheme supports the exchange of ideas between researchers and stakeholders by funding the costs of workshops, seminars or other networking activities, covering up to £30,000 for a period of up to two years, with an additional £15,000 for international costs.
You can apply for support for high-quality engineering and physical sciences research in line with our healthcare technologies theme and strategy.
We will fund research into chemistry, engineering, information and communications technologies, materials, mathematical sciences and physics that underpin healthcare.
You can apply to work with overseas researchers in the State of São Paulo, Brazil. Collaborative work on any area of arts and humanities is governed by an agreement between UKRI and FAPESP.
This award can help you become an independent investigator through a programme of research and training lasting up to five years. We will provide your salary plus some support costs.
To apply, you must have:
research plans within MRC’s remit which do not overlap with those of your current group leader or proposed sponsor
a track record of challenging, original and productive research across past appointments, and an upward trajectory
identified opportunities for developing and progressing in your career
You must have a higher research degree in medicine or another clinical area.
You can apply if you are a postdoctoral researcher working in theoretical physics or related areas of mathematics and computer science.
Each year we aim to fund up to 10 of the next generation’s visionary scientists. Fellowships can last for up to four years and the funding you can receive varies widely.
You can apply for this award at any time in any area funded by EPSRC if you are an academic and have not previously led a research group or received a significant grant.
We fund research into chemistry, engineering, information and communications technologies, materials, mathematical sciences and physics.
