The session will cover:
- Using dimensions to learn about researchers’ interests.
- Using interests to map to the many various themes/calls, etc.
- Working out who to approach on specific projects.
- Working out what happens elsewhere and how to make the most of that knowledge.
Please make sure you spend some time to look at the available resources below to get an idea of the system:
The United Kingdom, alongside most other countries, enforces controls on the export of military and dual use (i.e. civil technologies which have the potential to be used for military purposes) items, software and technology (‘technology’ is defined as information necessary for the development, production or use of goods).
As such, researchers at the University of Cambridge may be subject to UK Export Control legislation, and also US export licence conditions for technology imported from the United States. These regulations have the potential to apply to a range of activities, including research, teaching, visiting scientists and technology transfer.
Failure to observe these rules is a criminal offence for the researcher (responsible for primary awareness as the application of the rules to their research) and/or the University (failure to provide adequate guidance/internal processes/regulation at the appropriate level). It is therefore extremely important that researchers and those who support researchers are aware of their responsibilities under law and University compliance procedures.
This session provides researchers and professional services staff with an understanding of the main export control requirements applying to research and the University's approach to compliance. There will also be an opportunity to raise questions and discuss issues relating to export control.

In the increasingly competitive field of grant funding, applications need to stand out immediately to capture reviewers’ interest and to maximise the chance of being funded.
This accelerated session, aimed at early- to mid-career researchers, highlights key considerations in preparing a strong grant application. The session explores:
- desirability, feasibility and viability – planning your project
- how applications are assessed
- what’s important to the funder
- writing style - how to get noticed
- how to plan for impact – ‘now what’
- learning from funder feedback

This is a follow up Q&A session to support the Post Award Narrated Presentation and this Live Event provides an opportunity to ask questions to Research Office staff and discuss any cases or scenarios that you may be working on. There will also be time for participants to share their experiences of managing grants and best practice with the group.
We encourage participants to post any questions they have prior to the event using this link. This allows the facilitator to categorise the topics and respond effectively.
