PhD & Postdoc Grants

PhD & Postdoc Grants

We offer large research grants to drive innovation in the development of non-animal research methods or technologies that better understand the human condition and remove animals from experiments.

We offer PhD project funding to encourage graduates to develop career building skills and knowledge in replacement science and Postdoctoral project funding to attract and keep talented scientists within the ‘replacement’ scientific field. Our funding supports the development of cutting-edge science to remove animals and animal-derived bio materials from research laboratories.

Funding is available for three-year PhD studentships and Postdoctoral Research Associates for up to a maximum of three years.

Apply for a PhD or Postdoc Grant through our online application portal

We only accept applications through our online application portal. You will need to register for an account, which will allow you to return to and edit your application at any stage before submission.
