It is carried out under the framework of the Newton-Paulet Fund in science and innovation.<\/p>\n<p>The call seeks to generate scientific and technological knowledge relating to food, nutrition and health, in a multidisciplinary and collaborative manner, by granting funds to create Research Circles that develop projects between organisations and researchers from Peru and the UK.<\/p>\n<p>A Research Circle is composed of a group of researchers from different entities that work collectively in different disciplines. They will conduct research to further multidisciplinary scientific and technological knowledge.<\/p>\n<p>The Medical Research Council (MRC) seeks to improve the health of people in the UK and around the world by supporting excellence in science and training the best scientists.<\/p>\n<p>The proposals must address the food and nutritional challenges of Peru and have relevant results to improve human health and \/ or fight diseases in Peru. Funding institutions have strongly encouraged interdisciplinary proposals in this call.
