Welcome to the Lister Institute of Preventive Medicine's Research Prize Site

The awards are open to any researcher who fulfils the eligibility criteria and who is working in a university, hospital, research-institute or other not-for-profit organisation in the UK and Republic of Ireland.

Applicants may be scientifically or medically trained and will have their personal salary provided from either their host institution or another source.

Research may be in any area of biomedical science, but most of the research must be conducted in the UK or Republic of Ireland. Some work carried out overseas is acceptable and awards are transferable between institutions.

If your application progresses to the long-listing stage of our review process it will be sent out to external peer reviewers who must agree to keep it confidential. Nevertheless, if you wish to present ideas or unpublished data that have the potential to lead to intellectual property, it may be prudent to alert your technology transfer office before submitting the proposal.

Please read the FAQ's before contacting us with any questions.
