An interim website has been launched by UK Research and Innovation at www.ukri.org.
The website, which went online on 19 July, said it would be “a source of news and information about the development” of the umbrella research body.
UKRI will be formally launched in April 2018 and will bring together the seven research councils, Innovate UK and a new funding body called Research England. It will partly replace the Higher Education Funding Council for England.
