Latest recipients of Investigator Awards announced

14 June 2012

The Wellcome Trust has announced the latest recipients of its Investigator Awards, which aim to help exceptional researchers addressing the most important questions about health and disease.

The Trust has appointed 22 Investigators (three New Investigators and 19 Senior Investigators, eight of whom are working as part of joint awards). The researchers are based at institutions across the UK, from London to Exeter to Glasgow. The latest round of awardees features a substantial number of female researchers: seven of the researchers - almost one in three of the awardees - are women.

The Investigators will be tackling ambitious research questions in areas as diverse as statistical genetics, Down's syndrome, bacterial 'nanomachines', diabetes and tissue engineering.
