We’re delighted to launch “Nature Awards Microbiome Accelerator”, a new kind of program from Nature Awards.
Are you a research group leader with aspirations to translate your microbiome research to transform human health outcomes?
The “Nature Awards Microbiome Accelerator”, open to university research groups around the world, will identify groundbreaking microbiome discoveries and fast-track their translation from lab to venture. The award is delivered in partnership with Seed Health, an innovative US-based biotech company.
Four carefully selected teams will be supported with development grants, a week-long residential, and partnerships with industry. Apply at: nature.com/immersive/microbiomeaccelerator
About Nature Awards
Nature Awards are run in partnership with organizations to champion scientists. With Nature Portfolio editors, we create a complete awards program for organizations — featuring a website, judging activities, a multichannel marketing campaign, and a face-to-face awards ceremony.
The Microbiome Accelerator builds on one of our existing awards, The Spinoff Prize, extending our Nature Awards portfolio further into the ‘business of science’ space. It will be the first time we bring together researchers from universities and industry working on the same problem.
To discuss your organization supporting a future Nature Award, talk to our team today.
