BBSRC International Travel Award Scheme

The BBSRC International Travel Award Scheme provides short-term funding for UK-based biological sciences researchers to visit international partners, prepare joint proposals, access overseas facilities or attend European consortia-building events. Awards fund a single visit of up to one month. Funding is limited to travel and subsistence costs and is available to applicants who hold current BBSRC support.

Travel and subsistence funding of up to £3,000 for a single overseas visit of up to one month.

Applicants must be existing BBSRC-supported researchers: holders of a current BBSRC research grant or researchers in BBSRC strategically supported institutes. The application must be made by a principal investigator; students are not eligible. Applications can only be made after the BBSRC grant has started and with at least six months remaining on the project.

Submit an application via the UKRI Funding Service. the project lead completes the application and the lead research organisation must submit.
