Seeking Biomedical Researchers

Apr 08 2010

The Wellcome Trust today announces a major new scheme to support world class researchers to investigate the most challenging questions about health and disease, push the boundaries of research, and make discoveries with the potential to lead to improvements in health. The awards will provide researchers and their teams with the support to pursue individual, bold visions without constraints. The awards will give
researchers the maximum amount of freedom to be creative and innovative in their approach. Their breakthroughs will increase our understanding of health and disease, and will lead to new technologies and treatments that can benefit patients.

Sir Mark Walport, Director of the Wellcome Trust, said: "The watchword of Wellcome Trust Investigator Awards will be flexibility, in length and scale of funding. The challenge to all research funders is to nurture and support the best scientists and enable them to ask the most important questions. We intend to provide Wellcome Trust Investigators with the creative opportunities and resources they need to tackle tough problems."
