Early-career researchers are rightly worried about the road ahead, and have drafted an open letter to UKRI & #STFC, calling for a "strategic correction" to avoid irreversible loss of curiosity-driven UK research - an essential part of future discoveries, tech, & growth. bsky.app/profile/si-w...
We’ve drafted an open letter from early-career researchers in response to UKRI reprioritisation and the funding crisis in Particle Physics, Astronomy and Nuclear Physics (PPAN).
This risks losing an entire generation of young researchers from UK science. We cannot let that happen.

Thanks for the article! The early-career researchers in Particle Physics, Astronomy and Nuclear Physics (PPAN) have drafted a letter to UKRI, which can be found here in the link. We can't let this funding crisis remove a generation of young scientists from the UK system
