New Investigator
Awards support world-class researchers who are no more than five years from
appointment to their first academic position, but who can already show that
they have the ability to innovate and drive advances in their field of study.
They should be able to articulate a compelling long-term vision for their
research and demonstrate the talent, track record and originality to achieve
it.
New Investigator
Awards provide support that is flexible and at a level and length sufficient to
enable exceptional researchers to address the most important questions about
health and disease.
·
New Investigator Awards provide a
flexible package of funding and may be for up to seven years
· A New Investigator Award might be in the range of £100k
to £425k per year. Please note that awards may not necessarily be made
at the upper end of this range, and we expect costs to be suited to and
justified by the proposed research.
