The Opportunities Call is designed to support the STFC PPAN community by providing funding for ‘pump-priming’ activities. The call aims to allow the STFC community to do one or more of the following types of activity:o Prepare for participation in multi-disciplinary science programmes that may be supported in the future by major UKRI or STFC funding schemes;o Undertake exploratory or proof-of-concept studies that may have the potential to develop into new strategic PPAN programmes;o Develop and strengthen multi-disciplinary research collaborations and networks. The Opportunities Call will aid STFC’s PPAN community by increasing their capacity for multi-disciplinary and interdisciplinary working. Such increased capacity will both enable high-quality research, and position the PPAN community favourably to respond to future funding opportunities. 2. Key Dates, Timing, and Budgetary ConsiderationsThis call opens on 29 April 2019 and closes on 13 June 2019. All applications will be assessed by STFC’s Projects Peer Review Panel (PPRP) in July 2019.All successful applications will have a fixed start date of 1 October 2019. The end date of an application must be no later than 30 September 2021.As the results of the next Comprehensive Spending Review and its impact on STFC’s budget are currently unknown, all proposed programmes must plan to be able to commit the majority of their funding within between 1 October 2019 and 31 March 2020. All applicants will be asked to include a statement to that affect within their Case for Support.
