Funding : BBSRC Industry Interchange programme
The aim of the scheme is to support short-term exchanges that provide strategic advantage to the UK science base and industry arising from reciprocal access to facilities, expertise and/or knowledge, and an increased understanding of scientific issues of common concern. Awards are typically up to £50k. The Interchange may be full- or part-time, or taken in tranches. Financial support is dependent on the requirements of the proposed project and a significant cash or in-kind contribution from the industrial and/or academic partner is required.
Eligibility
The lead participant at the academic partner must hold a permanent academic post and be a current BBSRC research grant holder or have previously received a BBSRC research grant with relevance to the planned Interchange.
All participants should be qualified to PhD level or have relevant experience to undertake the planned work. The programme will not support students.
Applications are assessed by the Bioscience for Industry Strategy Panel, which meets 3 times a year but there is a current deadline for the next panel of 1st April 2009
