Senior Investigator
Awards support exceptional, world-class researchers, who hold an established
academic position and have a compelling long-term vision for their research. We
will support researchers who have an international track-record of significant
achievement, who have demonstrated the originality and impact of their
research, and who are leading their field.
Senior 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.
·
Senior Investigator Awards provide a
flexible package of funding and may be for up to seven years.
·
A Senior 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.
