Wellcome Trust Translational Partnership Early Translational Funding – Round 4 open!
The Newcastle Wellcome Trust Translational Partnership Early Translational Fund is delighted to announce that our Round 4 funding call is now open for applications.
Applications are open to Newcastle University staff and honorary staff members. Projects are expected to be in an early stage of translation and to fall within the Wellcome Trust discovery research remit. The Wellcome Trust funds research with the potential to improve human life, health and wellbeing. In a change to previous rounds, applicants DO NOT require previous Wellcome Trust funding to be eligible for the scheme.
We would like to invite applications to three different awards:
- Early Translational Project Funding: this award is to provide support for projects at an early stage of translational research pathway.
- Follow-on Funding: this award is intended for applicants who received previous WTTP funding and to support the most promising projects from the first phase of funding.
- Translational Explorer: is a discovery programme that allows researchers to take time away from conducting research to explore the validity of a translational idea or develop skills through secondments or placements that enable the translation of research.
Deadline for applications is 4pm on 7th April 2022.
Further details including the respective application forms and guidance notes are available on the Newcastle Translational Research webpage.
