Funding Opportunities Upcoming Dates
30th November 2026 – Steve Bishop Collaboration for Innovation Early Career Award
This scholarship targets early-career animal scientists, including postgraduate students or those within three years of a PhD, as well as industry professionals with similar experience, even without a PhD. Valued at up to £5,000, it supports short livestock related research programs or training opportunities in the UK or abroad, fostering new partnerships rather than continuing existing ones. Additionally, the funds may partially support livestock related projects across the animal science sector.
31st December 2026 – Science for Animal Welfare Centenary Research Grant
What we are looking for
The only condition (for the topic) is that the project must seek to address either
1) a major animal welfare challenge in terms of severity, duration, and number of animals affected or at risk, or
2) a fundamental animal welfare question.
