What we do

  • We develop training and information sessions for researchers, designed to build skills and to evolve knowledge of the grant writing process and of emergent funding priorities.
  • We provide the latest information on research funding opportunities, funder announcements and upcoming events through Research Focus Newsletter.
  • We advise on strategic funding plans to attract the resources needed for the research ambitions of individual researchers or groups.
  • We advise College officers and responsible units on areas of policy and strategy impacting researchers’ capacity to compete for research funding, and to promote more effective and ambitious facilitation of research at TCD. 
  • We engage with key stakeholders and networks to influence the funding environment and to maximise opportunity for Trinity researchers.
