MRC Milstein Fund Awards - Call for proposals

The MRC are now inviting proposals for the Milstein Fund Award. Any UK based researcher who can demonstrate a proven track record in their own scientific field and will be able to demonstrate highly innovative ideas and approaches to contemporary challenges in medical research can apply for this award. In 2006, the MRC developed the Milstein Fund specifically to support pioneering and original research ideas with potential for high impact, which may involve a diverse range of disciplines, be too novel, or be at an early stage to fare well the usual review and assessment processes. For full details, eligibility criteria and how to apply for this award, please visit the link below. The deadline for receipt of proposals is Monday 16 July 2008. The Milstein panel will meet to consider the short-listed proposals in December 2008.
