Eligibility
Can we actually apply?
This funding opportunity is open to organisations with standard eligibility. Check if your organisation is eligible . Check if you meet the individual eligibility criteria . Demand management Organisations may submit a maximum of three applications to this funding opportunity. Potential applicants are advised to contact their research office at the earliest opportunity. We encourage organisations to discuss and prioritise their submissions, to ensure high-quality applications that are competitive for funding. An individual may only apply as the project lead on one application, and as project co-lead on one other application. As applications will be in direct competition with each other, this approach is generally not recommended unless the applications are in distinctly different research areas. Applications involving two or more collaborating research organisations are welcome but must be submitted as one application on the UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) Funding Service by the lead research organisation. Research technical professionals Building on the Technician Commitment UKRI Action Plan and the UKRI people and teams action plan , we particularly encourage applications from research technical professionals as either project leads or project co-leads. In line with UKRIs individual eligibility policy , a research technical professional can be listed as a project lead or project co-lead, provided they can: • demonstrate the expertise, skills and capability to deliver the proposed application • show how they will achieve the proposed outcomes, including appropriate project management, leadership and knowledge If you are unsure whether you are eligible, contact bbsrcalert@bbsrc.ukri.org International researchers International researchers are not eligible to apply for funding as part of this funding opportunity, but they can be included as project partners or international collaborators if relevant. Resubmissions We will not accept uninvited resubmissions of applications that have previously been submitted to UKRI. Find out more about application resubmissions . If you have submitted a similar application that has either been assessed or is currently under assessment by another funder, please contact bbsrcalert@bbsrc.ukri.org as soon as possible. We will advise whether your new application is eligible for submission to ALERT 2026. Eligible resubmissions must clearly address previous panel feedback and have been prioritised for submission to ALERT 2026 by
