11. The size of the Culyer fund was determined by requesting estimates from all NHS hospitals of the clinical costs associated with research in their institutions. After the pool was established, the NHS solicited applications for funding from hospitals. In its second round of grants, the Culyer process will explicitly consider the quality of proposals. A portion of the Culyer funds will also be distributed based on relevance to the NHS's own research agenda.
