Research Project Management Pool
A new university-wide pool for research project management
At Leiden University we are giving post-award project management a boost with the introduction of a university-wide pool of Research Project Managers, that is housed at Luris. The aim is to relieve researchers of the administrative burden that comes with managing externally funded collaborative projects. The flexible capacity in this pool can be used when capacity at the institute level isn’t available. The assistance given by the Project Managers will enable researchers to meet the requirements for funding and increases the chances of getting grants.
Read all about the provided services and the benefits on the Leiden University staff website.
