Opportunity profile: EPSRC makes a quantum leap

                  

New scheme is for foundational research with an awareness of applications

Top tips

  • Have a five-year vision of where your technology could go.
  • The scheme is for foundational research that has an awareness of real-world constraints and industry needs.
  • Systems integration is one focus for the call.
  • If you are unsure of the brief, be sure to raise any issues with your research office or the council directly.
