## Complete your EoI
The EoI is a **short form** in [**UK LLC Apply**](https://apply.ukllc.ac.uk/). You are asked to: 

- Indicate the **data** you would like to access
- Provide a short overview (max. 500 words) of your proposed **research project** that outlines your primary research questions or objectives and describes the data sources and datasets you would need to access. The information you provide is used by UK LLC to conduct a feasibility assessment, rather than evaluate scientific merit
- Explain how your project might **benefit the public**. 

If you would like a **preview** of the EoI form please click [**here.**](../../images/expression_of_interest_form_template_20250128.pdf)

UK LLC aims to review all EoIs **within a week**. The key assessment criteria are: 
- All named researchers are **UK-based**
- The requested data are **available**
- The proposed research is **scientifically sound** and in the **public good**.

You may be invited to a meeting to discuss your EoI, particularly if your EoI does not clearly explain what you need to successfully deliver your research project, or if you request that data be brought into the TRE.

If your EoI is approved, you will be invited to start your full application - see the guide to [**submitting your full application**](../applying/application.md).
