Fantastic 2 minute summary of where we are with R&D funding post budget: what is welcome, what we still don’t know, and why it matters. @AliciaGreated
12 Nov 2024
CaSE Executive Director @AliciaGreated gave evidence to @CommonsSITC this morning on Budget 2024
"It was a really good outcome for R&D..[and] very clear that R&D was seen as underpinning all the big strategic priorities and growth of the UK..however, the devil is in the detail"

I'm pleased @lifearc1 signed.
It's easy to shout about your budget being cut - but there's more to it.
R&D is like a bath. If you keep turning the tap on and off, you end up sitting in cold water.
Remember ODA cuts? It was about more than money. It's a similar argument now.

Life sciences is one of the crown jewels of the British economy.
This landmark agreement will not only drive forward work that will boost our health, but will also fire up our economy, delivering the growth we need to invest further in health and to push up living standards.
To grow our economy, we need high-quality, long-term investments.
Our landmark collaboration with @EliLillyandCo will bolster the UK's life sciences sector and improve public health by keeping Britain at the forefront of scientific progress.
