NACC Research Funding

NACC has two separate funding programmes, one for Medical Awards and one for Social, Psychological or Health Services Awards. With effect from 2006, the intention is that there will be an opportunity to apply for both programmes every year. About £350,000 is available each year, but NACC hopes to raise this to £500,000 by the end of 2007.

NACC Medical Research Awards

Grants are usually for one or two year projects and can cover staff salaries and consumables, but not institutional overhead costs. PhD research projects have not often been funded, but are not excluded. NACC is willing to consider applications for relatively small amounts for pilot projects which, if successful, might lead to an application for a larger project. Any aspect of research related to Colitis or Crohn’s Disease can be considered.

Peer Review of Applications

In assessing all applications, NACC follows peer-review principles approved by the Association of Medical Research Charities. For example, the Chairman of the Committee may not apply for grants, any Committee member associated with an application or applicant institution is excluded from the award discussion and reports are requested from two external referees on each application.

NACC has been awarded the AMRC Certificate of Good Practice for its peer review procedures.
