Ana Mendez Franco

As grant officer, I deal confidentially with senior academics and a wide range of external funders. I support different research groups on the preparation and costing of research grant applications, co-ordinate award set up for successful applications, and I also manage post-award processes in accordance with sponsor and University requirements.

I work closely with teams such as HR, Finance, Research Services, and Research Accounts to ensure accurate allocation of grant funds and adherence with grant requirements and T&Cs.

Research groups I support:

-   CEBM

-   Medical Statistics

My remit also covers:

-   Pre-award and Post-award for the Head of the Department, Professor Sir Aziz Sheikh

-   NIHR ARC.

-   Pre-award and Post-award for Professor Chris Griffiths
