Cancer Research - Multidisciplinary Project Award

Cancer Research UK

The aim of these awards is to generate creative research ideas and explore their applicability in cancer research. These awards are awarded jointly between Principal Investigators (PI) from engineering/physical science disciplines, and PIs who are working in cancer research.

With a primary focus on multidisciplinary research, the research themes within remit for this award include:

The direct application of physics, engineering, chemical or mathematical concepts to address the underlying physical processes of cancer, including tumour initiation, growth and metastasis.
The development of new transformational approaches or the translation of technologies for direct applications in, or a clear path to, a direct application in the prevention, diagnosis or treatment of cancer. Proposals for the first applications of technologies in cancer research and those which demonstrate potential clinical applicability are encouraged.

In addition, we welcome proposals across all engineering and physical science disciplines including physics, engineering, mathematical and computational modelling, chemical and molecular sciences, materials science, molecular/tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. For more specific details of research supported by Multidisciplinary Project Awards, please refer to the scheme guidelines.

Multidisciplinary Project Awards are designed to fund individual project proposals; research proposals of a similar nature but which encompass a more detailed body of work may be more suitable for Programme Awards.

Eligibility Requirements

This funding scheme is currently closed and we are not accepting new outline applications whilst we reconfigure our offering in the multidisciplinary space. We expect that a new scheme will be launched in 2025. To be kept up to date, sign up for CRUK's Researcher Newsletter here. For an overview of other available opportunities, please see here.*

Applications should ideally include:

a minimum of two PIs working in distinct scientific disciplines
at least one PI working in cancer research at any career stage
at least one PI from an engineering/physical science discipline at any career stage

Applications will be accepted from UK universities, research institutions, CRUK Institutes, medical schools and hospitals. The award is not required to be co-located and can be held across institutions in the UK. Supporting roles from international and commercial organisations may also be included.

If you are unsure of your eligibility, please contact the office.
