UKRI Translation: MRC Proof of Concept: stage one

About this grant

This funding opportunity was previously titled ‘Developmental pathway funding scheme: stage one’. Ensure you apply to the correct scheme, as similarly titled UKRI opportunities exist. Apply for funding to develop and test novel therapeutics, medical devices, diagnostics and other interventions across any stage of the developmental pathway, from prototype development, through pre-clinical refinement, to early-phase clinical studies (up to phase 2a). You must be based at a research organisation eligible for Medical Research Council (MRC) funding. There is no funding limit but requested costs should be appropriate to the project.
