Grant News
UK research organisations can apply for funding of up to £400,000 to develop interdisciplinary research projects focused on improving health and wellbeing for ageing individuals.
UK Research and Innovation’s (UKRI) Research Development Awards will typically cover 80% of the full economic cost of the project, and will be granted for a duration of up to 24 months. To be eligible for funding, projects should aim to link the understanding of ageing pathways with broader factors impacting health, and should involve interdisciplinary teams working on proof of concept.
Eligible costs for the awards include investigator salary contributions, research personnel costs, direct research costs, and equipment costs. Organisations must submit an outline summary of their work in the first instance.
UKRI will host a webinar on 16 January 2023 (2:00pm to 3:30pm UK time) to provide more details on this opportunity and to take questions from the research community.
The deadline for full applications is 4pm on the 18th April 2023.
