This scheme supports excellent investigator-led research across the breadth of Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) scientific remit, including:
- plants
- microbes
- animals and humans
- tools and technology underpinning biological research
Investigations within and across scales are supported, from molecules and cells, to tissues, whole organisms, populations and landscapes.
Awards of up to £2,000,000 are available for up to five years.
Funding is available for:
- research projects, including data intensive and technology development projects
- equipment or use of existing facilities
- community resources, new facilities or infrastructure
- research networks and coordination
- summer schools
Multidisciplinary proposals that cross into other research council areas are welcome, but the primary focus of the work should fall within BBSRC’s remit.
Deadline: 25 September 2024
