Call for proposals

EU applicants only Bowel & Cancer Research is launching a PhD studentship award of up to £75,000 over 3 years. Three awards will be made in November 2013. Bowel & Cancer Research funds translational research pertaining to diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. For this round, funding for one studentship will be restricted to a project tackling ulcerative colitis and one to a project addressing colorectal cancer. Support will be given to: • Experimental medicine; studying human disease in human tissue • Innovation; therapeutic, diagnostic or devices • Trials; outcomes research In general the charity does not fund work using experimental animals. Because of the very strong link between B&CR and the National Centre for Bowel Research and Surgical Innovation, preference will be given to those applications that make some direct use of the facilities of the Centre or demonstrate a strong collaborative approach. There is a one stage application process. Guidance notes Application form Contact for all enquiries / applications: Debbie Hampson

Applications should be returned by 5pm on Thursday 30th May 2013.
