The Sir Jules Thorn Charitable Trust’s infrastructure funding scheme is fully focused on translational research
The Sir Jules Thorn Charitable Trust is an unusual medical charity in that it devotes a large proportion of its grant funding to equipment grants under its Research Infrastructure Fund.
That scheme, which is open to applications from universities and NHS trusts, is accepting preliminary applications, now with a deadline of 29 February. There is no limit on the value of grants, but previous grants awarded under the scheme have tended to be worth between £100,000 and £500,000.
