This competition is open to all staff members at the University and RBFT, both clinical and non-clinical, regardless of grade with innovative ideas in the areas of research, education or Professional Services engagement. 

Applications must include at least one collaborator from each institution, demonstrating an existing or potential partnership between the RBFT and the University. Applications are particularly encouraged from new teams and professionals, as well as those who have not previously received funding.

The deadline for applications is Monday 14 October 2023 at 17:00.
