Abstract

Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

Technical Summary

The Industrial Challenge Strategy Fund supplement is designed to bring diverse and flexible pump-priming activities to the Network with additional industrial involvement. This award will provide a support linkage, increasing UK Vaccine R&D activity around ‘proof of concept’ studies and can be used to support academic-industry partnerships and enhance academic and industry researchers' understanding of each other's needs and capabilities. This may be through people exchanges, creation of tecnology demonstrators, showcase events, workshops and pump-priming of grant activities.
