NIHR Programme Grants for Applied Research (PGfAR) represent a key funding source to support large scale, high impact applied research. A large number of these grants are currently running at the University of Manchester. The scheme has a new Director (Professor Elaine Hay) and she has made it clear that the scheme is looking to encourage new, innovative bids, especially using advanced methods to answer clinically important questions.
