Grant Support

Plan your research pathway before you submit

Strong grant applications don’t just define the research question, they demonstrate how the research will be delivered.

BioGrid works with researchers and organisations to shape the data, governance, and infrastructure required to support your project, helping you move from data to discovery with greater ease and precision.

Why engage BioGrid early

Early engagement allows us to assess data feasibility, help shape your study design around what the data can genuinely support, advise on governance pathways, and contribute to your grant application with formal feasibility evidence and infrastructure documentation.

Researchers who engage BioGrid early consistently find the process faster and better supported than those who approach us after funding is secured.

Feasibility across data and infrastructure

Governance and approvals pathways 

Access to appropriate datasets

Ability to deliver across institutions

BioGrid helps address these early, strengthening the quality and credibility of your application.

What BioGrid brings to your grant application

BioGrid provides a secure, end-to-end approach that connects governance, data, and infrastructure to support research delivery.

Shaping research design and feasibility

Identifying data access and integration pathways

Supporting governance and approvals 

Enabling secure environments for data access and analysis 

Supporting delivery across complex, multi-institution research

Working on a grant application?

Start the conversation early

You don’t need a fully developed proposal, an outline of your research question or project is enough.

BioGrid can provide:

  • input into feasibility and approach 
  • guidance on governance and data pathways and required infrastructure
  • a quotation for inclusion in your grant 
  • supporting content describing BioGrid’s role

Other considerations

Below is a standard clause for participants relating to how BioGrid will manage their data, for inclusion in research studies if you are engaging with BioGrid for your project.

[BioGrid project]

As a result of your participation in this study, your data may also be used for another study being undertaken at [insert name of participating institution, e.g. your hospital], BioGrid. BioGrid researchers seek to better understand how individuals’ characteristics affect the way in which they respond to a disease and to its various potential treatments, through linking participant information from multiple sources.

Your de-identified research information will be made available for possible use in future research to specialist researchers, from both [insert name of participating institution e.g. your hospital] and other hospitals or research organisations. Access to the data will be subject to appropriate ethics review, is restricted to authorised researchers, with all requests logged and audited. Data may be stored for an indefinite period of time.

Researchers using BioGrid data will only see coded information, which does not identify you. Only the institution at which this study was conducted will have the key from which you can be identified.

If you require further information regarding BioGrid and the storage, use and disclosure of your personal and/or health information as part of that Project, please advise the Principal Researcher, who will provide you with further information, including a copy of “Frequently Asked Questions”, a copy of which is also available at Patient Information.
