Latest round of research funding
The Oxford Martin School is inviting expressions of interest for research into technologies that create solutions for the major challenges of the 21st century. Adopting a broad definition of ‘technology’, the School encourages adventurous or risky ideas that might not easily be funded by other means, and that require an interdisciplinary approach.
