Research: Finance

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, with reference to the £39.8 billion Research and Development budget for 2022-2025, what proportion of that funding will be allocated to research using (a) advanced cultures of human cells and tissues, (b) artificial intelligence, (c) organ-on-a-chip technology and (d) other new approach methodologies.

Answer

We have set out how BEIS’ record £39.8 billion R&D budget will be allocated across our partner organisations over the next three years in our ‘BEIS R&D: partner organisation allocation 2022/2023 to 2024/2025’ report published on 14 March.

BEIS will now be working with all partner organisations to determine detailed allocations within their envelopes, including at council level for UK Research and Innovation. Details of funding for specific programmes will be agreed by BEIS and partner organisations and set out in due course.
