Particle Physics Research Grants
Particle Physics Research Grants support research in the areas of experimental and theoretical particle physics and certain aspects of particle astrophysics. Applications for work in these areas are assessed by the Particle Physics Grants Panel (PPGP).

Conference and short course applications
Applications can be made at any time for contributions to the cost of organising conferences and workshops within the PPGP’s area of interest. Applications should include the following information:
- The proposed programme and list of speakers
- The likely benefits to the UK Particle Physics community of holding the conference or workshop
- A budget setting out both costs and income, based on estimated attendance and contributions from other sources (both guaranteed and requested)
For information on how to apply please contact Jane Bennett.
New applicants scheme
This scheme is intended to provide support for newly appointed academic members of staff (lecturers or lecturer equivalent fellows) who have joined a department between grant reviews. For more information see the new applicants scheme section of the Research Grants Handbook.
