Research selected for investment will address both “challenges and opportunities”

A total of €14.6 million in funding for 25 projects to support early career researchers has been announced under a collaborative initiative between Science Foundation Ireland (SFI) and the Irish Research Council (IRC) to encourage a cohesive research ecosystem in Ireland.

“This funding will help facilitate a defined journey from post-doctoral research to independent research,” said minister for research Patrick O’Donovan. “Bridging this gap is a challenging but critical milestone, and the research selected for investment will address key challenges and opportunities, ranging from new therapies for Parkinson’s to the development of sustainable supercapacitors.”
