The University of Liverpool’s ‘COVID-19 Emergency Response Campaign’ has provided £100K for several vital research projects into the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact.

The current COVID-19 pandemic presents an unprecedented global challenge, and one for which University of Liverpool researchers, working at the forefront of innovation and discovery are striving to find a global solution.

In response to this challenge the University established the ‘COVID-19 Emergency Research Fund’ in April this this year to raise urgently-needed funding to help support the University’s COVID-19 research programme and to provide support for students facing financial challenges as a result of the pandemic.

Donations from alumni and friends of the University to the fundraising campaign have resulted in £100K being allocated to nine research projects from across the University.
