The UK is to return to the flagship Horizon Europe science research programme, Rishi Sunak has confirmed.
The prime minister said that from today, British scientists can apply once again for grants from the 85bn programme, a move that will be welcomed with jubilation from the science community in the UK which was once one of the leading beneficiaries of the fund.
We have worked with our EU partners to make sure that this is the right deal for the UK, unlocking unparalleled research opportunities, and also the right deal for British taxpayers, said Sunak.
