  5. All submitted proposals must fall within NIHR Remit • NIHR supports training in clinical and applied health research, including social care research. • The proposal must have clear potential for benefitting patients and the public within 5 years of its completion (but recognising the training element of the research). • The research can involve: patients; samples or data from patients; people who are not patients; populations; health technology assessment; or health services research. • NIHR does not support basic research or work involving animals or their tissue.

  6. NIHR Remit (2) • If the work involves biomarkers: • research that tests whether application of new knowledge can improve treatment or patient outcomes, and has obvious potential benefit within 5 years, is within remit; This might include application of known biomarkers, or other prognostic factors, to refine and test novel therapeutic strategies. • research that aims only to elucidate mechanisms underpinning disease, or identify risk factors for disease or prognosis (including search for biomarkers) is out of remit. • NIHR is also prepared to support research into medical education.
