Apply for funding to pursue early-stage bioscience discovery research.
Applications should open novel adventurous research avenues with the potential to transform our fundamental understanding of living systems.
Your project must:
- be early-stage fundamental bioscience lacking preliminary data
- explore visionary and untested ideas
- have the potential to open new research paradigms in the longer-term
You must be eligible for BBSRC funding.
The full economic cost (FEC) of your project can be up to £350,000. BBSRC will fund 80% of the FEC (that is, £280,000). Projects can last up to two years (three in exceptional circumstances).
Mandatory registrations must have been submitted by 19 November 2025, when the full application stage will open.
