How the pages here are put together

The site is built from primary funding pages first, then shaped into plain-language guides that help a reader decide where to spend the next hour.

Primary-source rule

Open calls, funder portals, programme documentation, and official guidance pages are the starting point. Interpretation follows those sources rather than replacing them.

How the current pages are built

  • Official funder or programme pages are reviewed first
  • Recurring language patterns are compared across schemes and regions
  • Pages are then rewritten into natural language for quick scanning and search
  • Outbound links point readers back to the official source when a primary document matters more than a summary

What counts as editorial judgement here

The site makes editorial calls about what matters, what signals are worth noting, and how to summarize a funder or call without flattening it into generic copy. Those judgments are intended to save time for researchers, research development teams, and project leads.

Where a page makes an inference about what a programme is signaling, that inference is based on current programme language, scheme structure, and the kinds of applicants the page appears designed to attract.

What the site does not claim

Scientific Revenue does not guarantee that a scheme is open, that an institution is eligible, or that a reader's project fits a programme. Those decisions always depend on the current official documentation and the applicant's own circumstances.

Because open calls change, readers should treat the site as a faster starting point rather than as the final authority on application rules or deadlines.
