Note: We are currently receiving a very high volume of applications, leading to delays in processing. We have therefore taken the decision to prioritise processing complete applications. Applications that fail to include important documents or information, or that diverge substantially from our specifications e.g. for creating a list of publications, will be rejected for formal reasons without further review.
