Academic Bursary to attend Pharmacology 2024 (for attendees)

BPS members who work in academia can apply for a bursary to support travel and/or accommodation costs for attending the BPS's annual meeting, Pharmacology 2024.

Eligibility

Criteria

Awards will be based on the number of eligible applications, the allocated budget and the Society’s assessment of the most economical mode of travel and a reasonable standard of accommodation.
 

When will I know if my application has been successful?

We will do our best to notify applicants before Pharmacology 2024's early bird registration deadline of Tuesday 29 October 2024. That way you can still register in time to receive the early bird discount. If we notify you after the early bird deadline date, we will still offer bursary applicants the early bird rate via a discount code.
 

How much can I apply for?

Members can apply for up to £150.
 

What can I use this money for?

This bursary is intended to support Pharmacology 2024 attendees with travel and/or accommodation costs, such as train or plane tickets and/or hotel costs. Unfortunately, the bursary cannot be used to cover the cost of the conference ticket. If you need help with funding the cost of the conference ticket, we encourage you to speak to your university department or employer. They often have funds available to support students/employees attending conferences that will help with your studies and/or career development.
 

Payment

  • To receive payment, you need to complete and submit via email the  bursary claim form within four weeks of the closing date of the meeting, along with your receipts, the email confirming the bursary, and a certificate of attendance.
  • We will only make payments to a bank account in the applicant’s name, unless otherwise agreed with the Finance Team.

This bursary is open until Friday 18 October 2024.
