Individual Research Council updates

During 2023, all Research Councils are transitioning from the Joint Electronic Submissions (Je-S) system to the new Funding Service.

Therefore, all applicants, grant holders, research support staff, reviewers and panel members will need to start using the new Funding Service over the coming months.

This page provides details of the changes for each Council and will be updated regularly as information is released from UKRI. The dates given below correspond with the most recent UKRI updates.

Full details are available on the UKRI website and, if you have any queries, please email Research@lboro.ac.uk
