Following consultation with our members, the SRF now offers 3 separate Scholarship funds; an Academic Scholarship, an Early Career Researcher Scholarship and a Return to Research Scholarship.

The types of activities that could be supported include (but are not limited to):

• Small pump-priming grants to generate preliminary data for a full grant proposal
• Travel and subsistence for a period of sabbatical leave
• Bridging funds to help retain staff during gaps in grant funding
• Support academic staff returning to research following maternity, adoption and/or shared parental leave.

Application deadline for 2017 is Midnight, 13 October 2017
