What is a BRC?

How does NIHR funding support BRC research staff?
NIHR funding supports BRC researchers of the highest calibre to drive innovative research ideas that can attract investment from other funders, furthering the nation’s economic growth. BRC researchers support academic capacity development and training across the full career spectrum, from pre-doctoral to post-doctoral, that supports greater equity of opportunities for all.
