Grants, Prizes and Awards
The Society for Endocrinology offers a number of grants, prizes and awards which are available largely due to the funds generated by its trading company BioScientifica
Ltd.
The Society's recent strategic review addressed various issues connected with attracting good scientists, doctors and nurses into endocrinology and supporting them throughout their early career. Most of the grants are intended to achieve this objective.
Most are flexible to allow members to make the fullest use of them. An example is the Early Career Grants Programme, which provides grants of up to £15,000 to members for a very wide range of uses, from new equipment to finalising a project.
Several of the prizes, for example the Undergraduate Essay Prize, are
intended to focus the attention of budding scientists and clinicians
on endocrinology, both to ensure they learn something about the project
during their studies, and to encourage them to consider specialising
in endocrinology.
