There are three prizes available for ideas which demonstrate innovation: a £100 voucher for the best idea and two at £50. To enter the competition, complete the online form by Friday 16 February and you will be automatically entered.
The RIC-KI website details a range of topical and innovative research ideas that Idea Inventors wish to share with the worldwide scientific community as potential collaborative research projects. Potential research collaborators then complete the online expression of interest form and the RIC-KI support team connect both parties.
The RIC-KI platform now has approaching 400 members from 140 institutions in 37 countries and welcomes researchers at all career stages from universities and other organisations around the world.
