The Science and Technology Facilities Council is now part of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI), a national funding agency investing in science and research in the UK. UKRI operates across the whole of the UK with a combined budget of more than £6 billion and brings together the 7 Research Councils, Innovate UK and Research England.
To mark the first day of UKRI, you can read an inaugural message from Sir Mark Walport, UKRI CEO.
