UK Cardiovascular Regenerative Medicine Centres
We wish to establish one or two Centres for Cardiovascular
Regenerative Medicine in Autumn 2013 and are seeking outline bids
for awards to support them.
A total of £6 million will be available for this initiative, for
a four-year funding period.
A Centre award will enable integrated multidisciplinary working
of a critical mass of scientists, who can provide the range of
skills needed to translate basic science into clinical utility for
patients with cardiovascular disease.
Our awards will be made in the context of, and in addition to,
the concurrent MRC-led UK
Regenerative Medicine Platform (UKRMP) programme of
funding.
Further details, including instructions on how to apply, are
available
here. The deadline for outline applications is 1
June 2012.
Research Excellence Awards (round 2)
Applications are invited for a second round of Research
Excellence Awards (REAs) to commence in April 2014.
The initiative was first launched in 2006 to
provide flexible funding to a few centres in order to enhance the
capacity for UK cardiovascular research to tackle important basic
or translational questions at a world-leading level.
The second round will provide awards of
up to £6 million over five years.
Find out further details and
how to apply for a Research Excellence Award. The deadline for
applications is midday on 31 August 2012.
