How can an organisation qualify for and receive NIHR FSF?
NIHR FSF for an NHS organisation’s own use is based on the number of senior investigators associated with the organisation in post, and the income the NHS organisation received from the NIHR and Policy Research Programme (PRP) during the previous year. To qualify, an organisation must: · be an NHS Trust · be associated with at least one senior investigator, or have received NIHR Funding other than NIHR FSF in the previous calendar year · employ staff who do or support research · fund research staff employed in a partner organisation, such as a university, through a formal agreement.
