Congratulations on being awarded a Conference Grant! Your grant comes with some important requirements around how you present your research and claim back your expenses from us.
Before you begin
Learn more
Please ensure that you have read the following:
Presentation style
Award holders are expected to prepare presentations which adhere to the Moorfields/IoO brand and style guidelines. Unless required by the conference organisers, we expect that standard Moorfields/IoO templates (or a brand and style compliant format) will be used for any conference attended.
Acknowledgment of funding support
MEC conference funding must be acknowledged in any relevant poster, talk or publications using the format ‘Presentation of this work was supported by Moorfields Eye Charity’.
This is in addition to any acknowledgement of MEC funding which supported the delivery of the research being presented.
The MEC charity logo must be included where appropriate and will be emailed to successful applicants.
Claiming expenses
To claim back your expenses under your Conference Grant you must complete a Conference attendance report and claim form and submit all the necessary documents for claiming expenses. Applicants will be sent a reminder to complete this task and it will be completed within Flexigrant. Please note that expenses are not paid via Moorfields payroll.
Remember that incomplete or claims which include ineligible expenses will be returned and not processed further until corrected.
Please refer to our application guidelines for further information.
For any other enquiries or additional support, please contact the Moorfields Eye Charity Grants and Research Team.
