Zoology Research Support Fund

The aim of this Fund is to transform our ability to support our zoologists, and enable us to respond and innovate in our fast-changing subject.

The Department is home to a thriving community of scientists who share a deep interest in how animals develop, function, interact and evolve. 

This Fund will:

  • support innovative projects, where existing resources fall short
  • provide flexible and agile support in fast-moving situations

Grants will be made from the Fund in response to applications made by members of the Department of Zoology.

How you can help

  • £500 will make a significant contribution towards the costs of zoologists wishing to publish their work in the best open-access journals 
  • £750 will provide support towards the travel costs of a Postdoctoral Associate or PhD student carrying out fieldwork, visiting laboratories or attending a conference
  • £750 will enable a zoologist to develop an aspect of their research as an outreach programme, for example in collaboration with our Museum of Zoology 
  • £1,000 will support a graduate student for one month to extend or complete an exceptionally promising piece of research 
  • £5,000 will help a zoologist to develop a novel, exploratory project, perhaps in association with matched funding, which could then become a full-scale research application
