Projects Research and Development - call for applications

STFC has announced a call for applications to the Projects Research and Development scheme (PRD). The applications should be submitted by the deadline of April 5th 2012 and will be reviewed at a meeting of the PPRP Panel on June 6/7 2012. STFC intends to allocate a total of around £1.5 Million.

This PRD scheme is intended to develop the capabilities needed to underpin UK science and technology leadership in future Science and Technology Facilities Council projects in the areas of particle physics, particle astrophysics, nuclear physics and astronomy, and gives industry the opportunity, in collaboration with approved research organisations, to apply directly to the STFC for funding for research and development.

Please note that proposals for project specific R&D, or small upgrades for space instruments and missions, fall within the remit of the UK Space Agency (link opens in a new window).

More details of the STFC PRD scheme, including an updated guide for applicants is available.
