Managing your grant
If your application is successful, you will be
sent an award letter and a grant acceptance form. You will then be
required to manage your grant for its duration.
Claims for actual expenditure against the award will be
reimbursed on receipt of invoices submitted quarterly in arrears,
quoting your grant number.
When you receive your award letter
You should ensure that we receive your completed and signed
grant acceptance
form within one month of the dated award letter.
Claiming travel funds for conferences
To claim a travel fund, your University must submit the
travel fund claim form within 3 months of attending the
scientific meeting.
Reporting progress
We require a Final Report on the outcome of your research
project within 3 months of the end of the grant period. You can
find the relevant form in Reporting progress. Occasionally we may
request a progress report. 5 year grants will usually
also be subject to a mid term review.
Publishing your grant
We are committed to unrestricted access by the wider community
to published research. All grant holders must therefore comply with
our Open Access
Policy.
Please also read the information in Communicating
your research for advice on how you can share exciting results
with our supporters.
