UKRI pauses several funding calls amid priorities shake-up

If you can't access:

"The applicant-led MRC funding calls on pause include research grants, partnership grants and new investigator research grants made available through the council’s research boards."

"The MRC said it would provide an update on the paused calls this month."

@steveroyle Is there any hint of why and if it's only MRC or wider UKRI?

@nicolaromano the article says UKRI will 'reshape itself to better align its investments with “national priorities” and the pursuit of economic growth.'

@nicolaromano @steveroyle

The MRC is closing all its institutes except for the LMB. It's been ongoing for a while, and indeed ominous.
