Model Agreements

Before a piece of research can start, sponsors and host institutions need to have appropriate agreements in place. Considerable time and effort can be required to draft different versions of such agreements for the various research scenarios. To simplify this process, the UKCRC Partners and stakeholders have developed a suite of model agreements which can be used "off the shelf", without modification.
