Additional documents (depending on study design):
> Staff CVs (E.g. for CI/PIs/Study Co-ordinators)

> Recruitment adverts, leaflets, emails, or letters

Document templates
Please find below guides and templates for the core documents. When submitting your application, your participant-facing documents must represent the actual versions that participants will see during your study.
