As part of our 80th anniversary programmeOpens in a new window, we’ve launched the Nuffield Foundation Emerging Researchers Network to support the research leaders of the future. We’re involving early career researchers (ECRs) each step of the way.

The Foundation’s mission is to fund research with the potential to change lives. As we look ahead to tomorrow’s research challengesOpens in a new window, we want to invest in the research community of the future.
