Following on from the Synthesis of Strategies, this publication articulates what the Councils collectively see over the next 10-20 years as the grand challenges for UK research and the benefits that will come from them. It identifies some of the big questions about the universe and ourselves that the UK’s Research Councils will be working to solve in the next few years.
