eFuturesXD

eFutures, the EPSRC funded network for UK electronics academics based in Newcastle and led by Prof. Anthony O’Neill, has been awarded a research grant from EPSRC to establish new cross-disciplinary research projects and collaborations. The eFuturesXD account will offer awards to support UK academics in electronics as they initiate collaborative research across their discipline boundary.

A total of £600,000 will be distributed by eFuturesXD over a three year period via four kinds of awards allowing access to funding for travel, meetings, facilities and project staff. These awards will offer the opportunity to scope new initiatives rapidly and to assemble the best team for longer, larger research programmes.  eFuturesXD aims to assess applications within a month of receipt allowing rapid access to funds for successful applications.

We will be accepting the first batch of applications in January and the eFuturesXD web pages, including submission and eligibility guidelines as well as information on how to apply, will be available via efutures.ac.uk very shortly.
