No. However, applicants will need to articulate a clear plan as to what capability, tools or facilities will be accessed to deliver the proposed research plan, either through collaboration with project partners or by outsourcing defined parts of the research plan to Contract Research Organisations (CROs). Any gaps or areas applicants would like support on can be outlined in the respective section of the expression of interest. Applicants that are invited to submit a full application to PACE following expressions of interest will have the opportunity to take part in a Catalyser which will include the opportunity for PACE to facilitate connections with the PACE Delivery Partner Network.
