The Biochemical Society is committed to supporting all our members in the continuation of their professional development.
A Carer Support Grant is offered to make it easier for members to remain engaged with the scientific community through our events programme.
We recognise that care needs and requirements can vary from individual to individual. Carer Support Grants are available to members of the Biochemical Society who require support with additional care costs associated with their participation in a Biochemical Society event or course.
Additional support costs can include, but are not limited to:
You will be required to give a full breakdown of costs as part of the application process. Please note that limited funds are available per event, and whilst the Society will endeavour to support successful applicants to the amount required, the Society may not be able to provide full support for the costs of your attendance.
Carer support grants are only available for Biochemical Society Scientific Meetings, Training Events or Courses. This covers both face to face and online meetings. Members can apply as part of the event registration process.
Applicants must be a member of the Biochemical Society by the event early registration deadline (or one month prior to the start date of the event where there is no early registration deadline). If you are not a member, join today or as part of your event registration.
Decisions to award grants are made at the discretion of the Society.
Personal information collected from applicants will be used only for the purpose stated. Read our privacy policy for further details.
