SFI ARC Hub Programme Webinar and Call for Translational Projects

Date : Thu 20 Jul

Online

The Technology Transfer Office (TTO) will host a webinar on Thursday 20 July 2023 at 11 am describing the SFI ARC Hub Programme: https://www.sfi.ie/funding/funding-calls/sfi-arc-hub-programme/ The webinar will be presented by Sudeepth Nair – Technology Transfer Office Manager. 

SETU are part of a consortium with UCC as the lead, Teagasc and others.  We have selected one area of the smart specialisation as a requirement of the call, and this is Agritech/food.

If you are interested, all we need at this stage is a list of potential projects (project titles) which we might put into the proposal. The focus is on Translational Projects; novel research projects that can be accelerated towards potential commercial impact.

The Translational Researchers can be located in the host and collaborating Research Bodies and must:

  • Hold a PhD or equivalent at the time of application
  • Be senior author on at least one international peer reviewed article
  • Postdoctoral researchers must have commitment from a suitable mentor (established researcher from their Research Body, or a Co-PI of the SFI ARC Hub)
  • Salaries for Postdoctoral Translational Researchers is an eligible cost (in line with their time commitment to the project)

To learn more please register before Wednesday 19 July 2023 at 4pm via the form below. A link to the webinar will be sent to all prior to the webinar.
