What is Research Connect?
Research Connect’s extensive online database of research funding opportunities provides a massive recourse for researchers to carry out quick and easy searches in all disciplines from a wide range of funders. As well as this, Research Connect also provides a constant supply of current international news on research policy and practice.
As a member of a subscribing institution (The University of Aberdeen) you are free to access all content, create and save searches specific to your area of interest and share information with colleagues. Access the site free of charge both on and off campus.
