Academics who are applying for external funding from the EU, such as Marie Skłodowska Curie Fellowships, have been asking whether the EU referendum results will impact on funding available. The RKEO advise that at this stage, there has been no confirmation received that funding will not be available to UK HEIs. As we are unsure how things are going to pan out and it potentially could take 2 years for us to leave the EU from when they operationalise article 50, we would suggest you continue as planned. We should operate on the basis of business as usual and continue to develop high quality bids.
For internal staff, please see the notification to staff from Professor John Vinney.

Hi all
There is a government statement on this today https://www.gov.uk/government/news/statement-on-higher-education-and-research-following-the-eu-referendum
This confirms that we are still eligible for grants. It is likely to be a long time before this changes when we finally leave the EU (and it is still possible that we may continue to be eligible under the Brexit deal that is finally reached), so it makes sense to carry on as normal.
