Cancer Research UK: Multidisciplinary Project Award

  Tuesday, 10 Jan 2023 | Funding Deadline

This scheme supports collaborations between cancer researchers and scientists from engineering/physical science disciplines. The aim of these awards is to generate creative research ideas and explore their applicability in cancer research. These awards are awarded jointly between Principal Investigators (PI) from engineering/physical science disciplines, and PIs who are working in cancer research. With a primary focus on multidisciplinary research, the research themes within remit for this award include:

• The direct application of physics, engineering, chemical or mathematical concepts to address the underlying physical processes of cancer, including tumour initiation, growth and metastasis.
• The development of new transformational approaches or the translation of technologies for direct applications in, or a clear path to, a direct application in the prevention, diagnosis or treatment of cancer. Proposals for the first applications of technologies in cancer research and those which demonstrate potential clinical applicability are encouraged.

Deadline for proposals: 10 January 2023
