点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

We request a block grant award of £425k to be spent on capital research equipment to support Early Career Researchers (ECRs) undertaking excellent research in engineering and the physical sciences. As UCL Vice-Provost (Research) and holder of the UCL EPSRC Equipment Account, Professor David Price (Principal Investigator) will take oversight of the block grant. We will allocate capital funds through a competitive process, ensuring the objectives of the award are met, and that funds have maximum impact. In alignment with UCL's institutional strategies to maximise usage and sharing of equipment, to support researcher development and leadership, and to support world class research at the interface between disciplines, the selected investments will benefit interdisciplinary cohorts of lecturers, fellows and postdoctoral researchers, enabling them to carry out high quality research which will further their careers.
