Q9: How do I find out which areas of work the DTC is interested in ?

A9: General areas of interest are described in the website sections on DTC research themes and the latest DTC capability challenges.

More specific requirements will be provided in periodic calls for research proposals.

We are also happy to discuss ideas ahead of formal proposal submission, as we recognise this may help improve the proposal ultimately submitted, or indeed, in some cases, avoid wasting time compiling proposals not likely to be of interest. Contact the DTC office if you would like to pursue this.
