RCUK Researchfish collection period 2016
The RCUK submission period for reporting outcomes of research opens on 1st February and runs to 10th March 2016. PIs and research students are required to submit their research outcomes via Researchfish.
Guidance on using Researchfish can be found on the Researchfish website. Additional guidance can be found on our website.
To note:
- New Response Code: Response Code 5 means that no submission is mandated.
- Question set changes
- Improved Publications Search: Researchers can search across a range of publication repositories to find publications to add to their portfolio. Guidance text is provided against each publications repository.
Requests for amendments to Response Codes should be sent to RFCam@admin.cam.ac.uk and will be forwarded to the appropriate Council for action.
Reminder: Next RGUG meeting on 9 Feb. 2016
The Research Grants User Group (RGUG) is a forum led by the Research Operations Office where research grant administration issues and developments are discussed. The next RGUG meeting will take place on Tuesday, 9 February 2016 at 9.30am in Mill Lane Lecture Theatres- Room 4 and is open to anyone who is involved in grants administration.
The agenda for the next meeting, as well as minutes and presentations from the previous meeting are available on the ROO Website.
DMP support service
Most University funders now require data management plans as compulsory part of grant applications. Therefore, the Research Data Management team have launched a new service to support researchers in writing Data Management Plans. The service offers guidance on funders’ requirements for data management plans, as well as templates and examples of data management plans.
Researchers can request assistance with data plans preparation by simply uploading their draft plans via a website interface.
Draft plans need to be submitted at least 7 working days before grant submission deadlines.
