The ERAB e-Newsletter – Issue 17

2014 Grants Awarded

 

ERAB is pleased to announce the funding of ten new grants starting in 2015 and would like to congratulate the successful researchers.

 

ERAB received 59 applications this year. They were of outstandingly high quality and deciding which to fund was, as always, really difficult. A panel of external reviewers completed review forms for the applications. This helped the Advisory Board to identify the best applications with regard to the clarity of the hypothesis, the merit of the science, the calibre of the team and the appropriateness of the budget. ERAB would like to thank the external reviewers for this valuable assistance.

 

Having this year particularly encouraged applications for research on lifestyle and drinking patterns we are delighted to be able to fund five important projects in these areas.
