UK universities and institutes most affected by loss of access to Horizon Europe funding are set to receive extra financial support under a “talent and stabilisation” scheme while association to the European Union’s flagship research initiative remains blocked.
Unveiling what he called “temporary transitional measures” needed until either the UK was admitted to Horizon Europe or launched its own “ambitious alternative” to the scheme, business secretary Kwasi Kwarteng said new interim measures would “provide stability and continuity of funding for UK researchers and businesses”.
