We missed scoring 96 this round! Scoring 17000 applications and making decision is not a easy task. Better go with lottery model after prescreening.

Been lots on here about recent difficulties in scientific funding in the US and Australia. Now it looks like there is gathering disaster here in the UK. One major government funding organisation announced with no notice that it is essentially pausing funding. Another looks like it will follow 😬

I'm seeing relatively little chatter or outcry about what is happening at the MRC, the UK's biomedical research funder. Before Christmas MRC paused the acceptance of many of its grants, including the standard applicant-led research grant. There has been no public information on what is happening 🧵
