The results of the 2018 CANTAB Research Grant are in! Once again we were overwhelmed by the quality of applications we received – which made it a tough job for our judging panel to narrow the research proposals down.
However, we could only pick three winning applications… and this year we have chosen the following entrants as our 2018 CANTAB Research Grant Award winners.
