The Institute of Medical Imaging and Visualisation (IMIV) has re-opened its call for innovative MRI research projects.
The aim of the scheme is to support projects that will lead to competitive external funding applications for MR imaging studies. Applications are therefore required to demonstrate a clear plan for progressing preliminary studies to grant applications and larger studies.
- All projects must have a Bournemouth University researcher as lead or co-lead applicant (see application form).
- The IMIV MRI Pump-Priming Scheme Round 2 has a rolling 3-month window for applications, rather than a single deadline, and up to 200 hours of scanning time to be awarded in total in 2021/22.
- There is no limit on the number of scanning hours that can be applied for, but projects applying for an award of more than 20 hours may be subject to external peer review. Awards will not cover any additional expenses related to scanning, or other aspects of the project.
- Projects must be deliverable within 12 months, including ethical approvals. Projects with ethical approvals already in place will be prioritised.
The latest window for applications is now open, and closes on Friday 9th September 2022.
