- take the next step towards becoming an independent researcher
You must have:
- the skills and experience to ‘transition to independence’

There is no limit to the funding you can apply for, but the typical full economic cost of a project is under £1 million. MRC will usually fund 80% of the full economic cost.
This funding usually lasts three years and covers up to 50% of your salary.
This is an ongoing funding opportunity. Application rounds close every January, May and September.
