The University of Manchester Research Institute (UMRI) will be launching the latest round of pump-priming awards in January 2025. The call aims to encourage collaboration and provide support for activities that will lead to an increase in successful interdisciplinary research.
Awards of up to £50K available, you’ll have one year to explore new ideas and forge exciting collaborations that push the boundaries of interdisciplinarity.
Eligibility:
• Sought from researchers across all discipline areas.
• To be led by an applicant who is eligible to apply for external research funding. Research associates and research fellows may be included as a Co-PI if the expected outcome of the project will support their applications for independent funding.

For this call early career researchers are defined as being employed in a non-permanent research position or holding a research fellowship or an academic post and who has less than eight years (full time equivalent and excluding periods of maternity, paternity and sick leave) of post-doctoral research experience.
Preference will be given to applications led by non-professorial staff or staff recently appointed or promoted to professor (in last two to three years).
