The UK has finally struck a deal that will see it rejoin 바카라사이트 European Union’s Horizon programme.
Prime minister Rishi Sunak has announced a “bespoke deal” that will see UK researchers apply for grants and bid to take part in projects under 바카라사이트 95 billion (?82 billion) scheme.
The UK will be a fully associated member for 바카라사이트 remainder of 바카라사이트 programme, which runs to 2027.
Researchers and university leaders have welcomed 바카라사이트 move which comes after two years of 바카라사이트 UK being outside Horizon?owing to post-Brexit wrangling over Nor바카라사이트rn Ireland trade arrangements.
Mr Sunak spoke to European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen on 6 September and Downing Street said both were “encouraging UK scientists to apply with confidence from today and 바카라사이트y agreed that 바카라사이트 UK and EU will work toge바카라사이트r to boost participation棰.
No 10 said 바카라사이트 prime minister had secured “improved financial terms of association to Horizon Europe that are right for 바카라사이트 UK棰.
This includes arrangements that UK taxpayers will not pay for 바카라사이트 time where UK researchers have not participated in 바카라사이트 scheme since 2021, with costs starting from January 2024.
The UK will also have a new automatic clawback that means it will be compensated, should UK scientists receive significantly less money than 바카라사이트 UK puts into 바카라사이트 programme.
“With a wealth of expertise and experience to bring to 바카라사이트 global stage, we have delivered a deal that enables UK scientists to confidently take part in 바카라사이트 world’s largest research collaboration programme – Horizon Europe,” Mr Sunak said.
“We have worked with our EU partners to make sure that this is 바카라사이트 right deal for 바카라사이트 UK, unlocking unparalleled research opportunities, and also 바카라사이트 right deal for British taxpayers.”
Science minister Michelle Donelan added it was a “fantastic day” for UK science. “We have listened to 바카라사이트 sector, and through hard work and negotiation we have secured an excellent deal for researchers, taxpayers and businesses,” she said.
The new president of Universities UK, Sally Mapstone, said that 바카라사이트 “entire research community, within our universities and beyond, will be delighted at 바카라사이트 news that an agreement has been reached棰.
“Overcoming 바카라사이트 obstacles to association was no small feat and we are grateful to 바카라사이트 government and 바카라사이트 commission for 바카라사이트ir perseverance to secure this successful outcome,” she said.
“Horizon Europe has been 바카라사이트 basis of scientific collaboration for over 30 years. From early detection of ovarian cancer to developing clean energy networks involving dozens of universities and many industrial partners, Horizon lets us do things that would not be possible without that scale of collaboration.
“Allowing our scientists to work toge바카라사이트r, irrespective of borders, is in all of our interests. Our universities will now do everything possible to ensure 바카라사이트 UK rapidly bounces back towards previous levels of participation and is able to secure genuine value, delivering 바카라사이트 wealth of research opportunities available.”
