Rolling Deadline

The Science and Technology Facilities Council invites applications for its new applicants scheme. This aims to provide newly appointed academic members of staff the opportunity to obtain research funding in the areas of experimental and theoretical particle physics, and certain aspects of astrophysics between grant reviews. This may allow them to begin to establish a research programme on appointment.

Applicants must be employed as a full- or part-time academic member of staff at the grant holding university by the start date of the new applicants grant, must be the sole investigator, and they may not be funded on more than one grant.

Funding covers a period of between one and three years.
