About six months ago, RKEO created a page on the Research blog of standard calls from the major external funders’. The closing dates have recently been updated and the page can be found on the Research Toolkit under the Research Funders’ Guide here.
Have a look to see what calls are coming up in the research councils, the EC, NIHR, British Academy, Royal Society, Leverhulme Trust, Wellcome Trust, and Innovate UK. If you’re unfamiliar with some of these funders’ then you can find their strategic and delivery plans, what they fund, success rate data, impact guidance, call deadlines and much more in the Research Funders’ Guide.
Finally, don’t forget to look at the Research Lifecycle to see how RKEO can support you with your research activities.
