Recipients are expected to use the IHR as their base in London and actively participate in the institute’s academic life, including use of the library, attendance at seminars and conferences, engagement with research centres, and possible involvement in research training or short courses. The bursaries primarily cover travel, accommodation, and research-related expenses associated with a research trip to London.
