Royal Society - Research Grants

Export as iCalendar

The Royal Society invites applications for its research grants. These provide seed-corn funding for early-career UK scientists for research within the society’s remit in the life and physical sciences, including the history of science but excluding clinical medicine. The aim is to increase the availability of specialised equipment and consumables for high quality research, and to support essential field research. The scheme also provides support for research in the history of science or to assist with publication of scholarly works in the history of science.

Applicants must have a PhD or equivalent status, be working as independent researchers within five years of their first academic position and be resident in the UK at the time of the application. Non-tenured researchers and retired scientists may apply if the application is related to the history of science and the applicant works in association with an eligible institution. Eligible organisations are UK universities and non-profit research organisations, including institutes funded by the UK Research Councils.

Two types of grants are available for a maximum period of 12 months: grants worth up to £15,000 for specialised equipment, essential consumable materials and services, and travel and subsistence for essential field research and grants worth up to £15,000 for research in the history of science or up to £5,000 to assist with the publication of scholarly works on the history of science.
