Once you’ve completed all the compulsory fields, you can create a User Hub account.

Please note that User Office staff cannot create an account for users anymore. If you are a new user, you are required to create your own account via the UserHub.

Travel Grants

This tool allows you to submit applications for Travel Grants

Click through to Travel Grants and select New Application to start a travel application. The User Hub will prompt you to check that you are eligible and have approval from your home organisation/institute first.

On this page, fill in the experiment you are traveling for (select from the dropdown), and select the Funding Contact (this is the person who will be the point of contact for this grant). Add individual applicants by clicking New Member and select where they will be traveling from. The total estimated value of the grant will update in the box on the right.
