Details

This document provides an update to the FCO’s Areas of Research Interest 2017 to 2018. It sets out medium to long-term coronavirus-related Areas of Research Interest.

ARI documents are part of the government’s response to the 2015 Nurse review, to provide a more sophisticated dialogue with academia and set out the most important research questions facing each department. They also address the recommendation from the Science Capability Review for departments to publish ARIs to encourage collaboration with relevant people and organisations.

This page does not cover, but may include overlap with, the research interests of other government departments.
