The Physiological Society Grant Scheme

The Physiological Society is launcing a new grant scheme to support public engagement.  A total of £5000 is available to Society members and non-members to engage with public audiences on a topic that relates to physiology.

Applications are invited now and the deadline is 29 February 2012.

It is hoped that the projects funded through this scheme will help meet The Society's aims of highlighting the contribution of physiology to medicine and society, and increasing recognition of its relevance to public audiences. 

The Society is keen to support collaborations between expert science communicators, facillitators of public engagement, and members with this grant scheme, and sponsor best practice public engagement.
