    This funding opportunity allows UK and US based researchers to submit a collaborative proposal that will go through a single review process.

    You must be based at a UK research organisation eligible for UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) funding.

    Who is eligible to apply UK partners

    You are eligible to apply if you:

    • are actively engaged in postdoctoral research
    • have either a doctorate or can show that you have equivalent research experience or training
    • have a level of skills, knowledge and experience that is appropriate for your proposed project
    • are a member of a recognised research organisation or have an offer of support (including use of facilities) from a recognised research organisation

    You must comply with our current eligibility criteria for standard AHRC research grant proposals. You can find more details in section two of our

    US partners

    Demonstrate how you comply with the NSF-SBE requirements for this funding opportunity.

    All US based applicants for whom funds are being requested from NSF-SBE must be listed as project co-lead (international). Any such individuals must be eligible for funding from NSF-SBE as their costs will not be covered by AHRC.

    Expression of interest

    You must submit your Expression of Interest (EOI) using the . You must then email your completed EOI in PDF format to your chosen lead agency.

    If AHRC is the lead agency, you must email your EOI to

    If NSF is the lead agency, you must email your EOI to

    This should outline:

    • the proposed research
    • the research teams that are involved
    • bottom line estimates of funding at 100% full economic cost to be requested from both the NSF and UKRI (including all research-related and institutional administrative costs for the US budget request)

    The EOI should include:

    • a brief summary
    • the main objectives and research challenges of the proposed research
    • the methodologies to be used
    • the outputs, impact and beneficiaries

    The EOI template should not exceed either 1,000 words or two pages in length. The EOI will be shared with the non-lead agencies to check for eligibility.

    Upon confirmation from the lead agency that the proposed collaborative research is appropriate for the NSF-SBE UKRI lead agency funding opportunity, researchers may submit a full research proposal to the lead agency.

    Full proposal Applying through the UKRI Funding Service

    If your EOI is accepted as falling within the scope of research typically reviewed by the NSF-SBE programme, as well as fitting within AHRC, we will invite you to submit a full research proposal.

    Full proposal budgets should not vary from those specified in the approved EOI by more than 10%, and you must justify any changes.

    We expect that full proposals will be submitted within one year of receiving EOI approval. If more time is needed for proposal preparation, an additional EOI may be required.

    If you submit a full proposal before receiving EOI approval, the proposal will be rejected.

    We are running this funding opportunity on the new Funding Service. You cannot apply on the Joint Electronic Submissions (Je-S) system.

    The UK project lead is responsible for completing the application process on the Funding Service, but we expect all team members and project partners to contribute to the application.

    Only the lead research organisation can submit an application to UKRI.

    If the NSF-SBE is the lead agency, you must submit your proposal via Fastlane, , or
