You can now apply for the 2021 ICIC scheme, applications close at  4pm, Wednesday 20 October 2021

ICiC enables us to support researchers from across the College by providing seed funding to establish that their concept has the potential to meet a market need in medicine. We aim to ‘pump-prime’ the translation of research into novel therapeutics, devices and diagnostics towards clinical testing.

We will be strongly encouraging multi-disciplinary proposals and those including external collaborations. More information will be provided soon on who our key partners for ICiC 2021 will be.
