Bullying and harassment in the research environment Expand Bullying and harassment has no place in medical and health research. It can directly affect the quality of the research and have a destructive effect on the research environment. Although our paper is not mandatory for AMRC members we hope that many of our charities will choose to implement policies that discourage bullying and harassment in the research activities they fund. This guidance provides suggested wording for grant terms and conditions to tackle bullying and harassment, as well as an internal guide for charities wishing to implement their own bullying and harassment policy.
Covering indirect and direct research costs Expand If you are an AMRC member charity and award funding via open competition… Your 'indirect' costs of research in universities can be supported by the Charity Research Support Fund (CRSF). Your ‘direct’ costs of clinical research in the NHS can be covered by NIHR Clinical Research Networks under the Attributing the costs of health and social care Research and Development (AcoRD) agreement.
