This scheme is aimed at newly independent principal investigators.

This scheme is open to newly independent principal investigators appointed between 1st January 2018 and 31st December 2021. The scheme is aimed at individuals whose research falls within the Wellcome Trust remit, which includes its Science stream, as well as its Humanities and Social Sciences stream. Applicants from the Plant Sciences will not be considered for the award unless they can demonstrate how their research falls under the Wellcome Trust science remit.

Cambridge based C2D3 members should log in to access the restricted information.
