Congratulations to Central Clinical School'sNational Health and Medical Research Council (NHMCR) winners in this very difficult round, being the six of our school's 87 applications which were funded. See detail below.
Professor Mark Cooper, Head of Diabetes, said, "For those who missed out do not be too despondent, be resolute, complete key experiments and think of ways to improve your applications for next year. The grant system is a sort of lottery but the stronger grants in general do better."
Professor Terry O'Brien, Head of School, added, "My commiserations for all the outstanding
applicants who were unsuccessful in what was an extremely competitive
round (9.5% success nationally) in an increasingly challenging system.
Everyone needs to keep faith in their science, continuing to publish
well and make an impact, and the grants will come."
