More than £500 million is being invested by UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) in Doctoral Landscape Awards and Doctoral Focal Awards, supporting thousands of PhD students – including those studying at the Earlham Institute.
These awards are designed to underpin discovery-driven research at universities across the UK to train the next generation of scientists. The investment will be allocated through three of UKRI’s research councils to support doctoral students to develop their skills and experience across the biological sciences, engineering and physical sciences, and natural and environmental sciences.
As part of the announcement, the UKRI Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) has confirmed the award of a Doctoral Landscape Award, which succeeds the current Norwich Research Park Doctoral Training Partnership (NRPDTP).
