Full text:  The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council invites outline applications for its strategic equipment call. This enhances UK scientific capability and supports a portfolio of high-quality, cutting-edge research of high priority by enabling researchers to purchase strategic equipment. The request should fit with the host university strategy and enable research that predominantly falls within EPSRC's remit. Strategic equipment could include cutting-edge technology that enables novel research or high-specification equipment that enables research through increased capability and capacity. The council encourages a culture of equipment sharing where appropriate in order to maximise usage within the research group, across institutions or across the UK. Equipment must have a minimum value of £400,000. Applications may be for a single item or a number of items that are clearly intended to be combined and used as a single asset.
