Do I know anyone who has recently (past few years) secured a New Investigator #BBSRC Research grant? We are writing one and could really do with an example of what works..
If you do and would be willing to share all or part of the application material the #NeuroESC lab would be eternally grateful 🙏

Edit: this is what we're applying to: https://www.ukri.org/opportunity/bbsrc-new-investigator-award-2025-round-one-responsive-mode/

Edit 2: Thanks to you all we've already got 3 example applications! You are all awesome 🤗 This will already help a lot, the last thing we would need is one from the most recent call (Jan 2024?) and as a "New Investigator", especially if you are also willing to share the reviewers' comments which are really useful to see what people look for in these applications - DM me if so 🙏
(It's our first one... lots to learn but not so many opportunities for learning!)

📢 Here's a new, online showcase on the UK's work in #SyntheticBiology! Leading edge of the #CenturyOfBiology.🤯

Scroll through the history to the bottom and you get example projects in all sorts of areas. The #UK strapline for this area is #EngineeringBiology, e.g. in government science policy.

Some really great talks and discussions today on advances in virus-livestock omics at the #Turing institute, who kindly supported the event. Talks include those by Ge Wu and Marie Di Placido (pictures) from the #Pirbright Institute.

Great to have input from the #BBSRC and #SFTC #Harttree Centre too.

Looking forward to new adventures in this area...

Not at #popgroup56, because needed family time prior to am heading out soon for first foreign field work since 2019. And its a good one: Hawaii working with collaborators at the Bishop Museum on chirally variable snails 🐌, funded by BBSRC. Beyond excited! Slightly cheesy 🧀 video highlights previous trip.
