British Academy/Leverhulme Trust Senior Research Fellowships

Deadline to notify REST of intention to bid: 23 October 2009
Faculty deadline to complete application form: 18 November 2009

The British Academy launched its new online electronic grant administration processing system, e-GAP2, on 20 August 2009. If you are thinking of applying to one of the research grant programmes it is worth learning about e-GAP2 (see: http://royalsociety.org/page.asp?id=1136) and you can register as a user as soon as the call opens so that you can see what is required for the application.

Senior Research Fellowships are offered for established scholars working at UK universities providing a period of research leave during which they will be able to concentrate on bringing a major piece of research towards completion while their normal teaching and administrative duties are covered by a full-time replacement. Awards are tenable for 1 year from autumn 2010.
