Thrombosis UK | The Thrombosis Charity wishes to increase awareness of thrombosis among the public and health professionals and to raise research funds to improve patient care. Helping people who suffer from VTE, DVT, PE and clots.

Annually, Thrombosis UK offers grants for healthcare professionals and scientists whose study will help improve the experience and outcomes of VTE patents or extend the understanding of thrombosis.

Applications open: Monday 4th January 2021 – Wednesday 31st March 2021

This grant is intended to support the development of UK-based pilot studies of well-defined VTE patient populations and expected to generate valuable datasets that will support a future large scale research grant application.

The ideal pilot study would provide a framework for initial research in an area of VTE where funding is limited. Thrombosis UK is unable to provide long-term support and so it is envisaged that the support provided by Thrombosis UK in this Pilot Study Grant will enable applications to other funders for large-scale continuing support after completion of the pilot study.

Maximum value up to £15,000 with a time frame expected between 6-12 months.
