Is a Partner Investigator expected to make a financial contribution to the application?
Partner Investigators (PIs) are required under the funding rules to ‘secure a significant contribution of cash, or in-kind or other resources from the researcher’s organisation for the proposed project’ (having regard to the total cost of the project and the relative contribution of other investigators). In the budget section (Part C1) and in the budget justification (C3) you will be required to detail the level and type of support provided by the PI such as cash, travel, lab and people’s time.
