Join our webinar to learn more about the innovation and collaboration funding awards that will be available to academics from UK Higher Education Institutions, with opportunities to capitalise on the funding with industry collaboration.
The funds should be used to support projects for 3-12 month in durations and cost between £15,000 – £100,000.
All funded projects need to align with the mission of the UK Human Functional Genomics Initiative and should build and strengthen collaborations between the Initiative and awardees through feasibility, pilot or initial studies, exploring ideas and generating initial data which could support the development of competitive collaborative grant proposals for longer term projects.
A part of the funding is ring-fenced for the development of important links between industry and the Initiative to extend knowledge exchange and promote translation of research. For such pilot projects there is an expectation that matched funding (cash/in kind) will be provided by industry collaborators. The projects should build and strengthen collaborations between the Initiative and businesses through feasibility, pilot or initial studies to provide preliminary experiments to explore ideas and generate initial data which could support the development of competitive collaborative grant proposals for longer term projects.
This webinar will be recorded and made available on this website.
