Nurse review of research councils published
19 November 2015

This review, by Sir Paul Nurse, makes recommendations for how research councils can evolve to support research in the most effective ways.

The review of UK’s research councils recommends bringing them closer together under a new and stronger body, Research UK, whose head would be in charge of all seven councils.

This independent review was announced as part of the government’s science and innovation strategy in December 2014.
