Have you got a creative way to engage medical and dental students with the potential, power and importance of research? Could you build a partnership to have major impact? Perhaps you have trialled something that is ready to be scaled up and rolled out?

A total of £100k will be awarded through the INSPIRE ‘special project’ fund to support projects that meet at least one of the following objectives:

  • Pilot particularly innovative activities that inspire students to consider a research career.
  • Expand/develop innovative activities regionally or nationally.

Grants will cover a period of up to 1 year. The application process is now open and the deadline is 5pm on Tuesday 6 May 2014.

All UK medical and dental schools are eligible to apply for INSPIRE special project funding, as are other groups aiming to engage UK medical and dental students with research.
