Receiving funding

Receiving funding

Receiving funding will prompt all sorts of activities including preparing contracts, finalising methodology, recruiting researchers and applying for ethics approval.

This section contains some guidance on the sorts of things that you might want to be thinking about at this stage of the study, as well as things you can do to anticipate issues later on. Some of these considerations relate specifically to research ethics, others are linked to principles of good practice, for example as stipulated in the RCUK (Research Councils UK) Code of Conduct on the Governance of Good Research Conduct.
