Opportunity overview

This NCA merges and co-terms 2 existing training contracts, co-terming them to expire 2027, as well as accommodating additional further training within the scope of the contract. This action has been made necessary by emergent IP dependencies which were not identified at the outset. The contract provides delivery of training programme initiatives, crucial for accelerating the progression of ambitious and successful researchers at the University of Edinburgh. The aim of this is to develop research concepts, leadership skills, and readiness to pursue large-scale strategic research funding. The programmes are delivered both face-to-face and online, and is tailored each year to meet the needs of participants in collaboration with University of Edinburgh leaders.
