About

Foundational research in mathematical and statistical sciences, scientific infrastructure and research training groups. Covered programmes include applied and computational mathematics, probability, statistics and mathematical biology. Mathematical-biology proposals must combine mathematical innovation with biological significance and strongly integrate the disciplines; mathematical models and tools must address real biological systems. Proposals are accepted at any time, with programme-specific target dates affecting review cycles. Budgets and durations suit the work; justified projects may request up to five years.
