About the Funding
Catalyst funding for pump-priming projects is available to support collaborations between Network members in bacterial vaccinology to explore new approaches and strategies to advance their vaccines in partnership with LMICs and industry, and acquire the data to support substantive funding applications.
BactiVac aims to fund a diversified portfolio of projects to catalyse research in bacterial vaccinology.
The catalyst funds available for projects up to £50,000 for a maximum of 6 months duration. Projects are required to align to one of the following:
- Focus on pathogens with outbreak potential
- Tackle the global antimicrobial resistance (AMR) challenge
Additionally, priority will be given to projects that:
- Target the pre-clinical/clinical bottleneck
- Generate novel partnerships between UK, Industry, LMIC partners
- Demonstrate a clear plan for future funding potential
- Confirm that research governance is already in place
