The Royal Society of Biology invites applications for both its established and new researcher prizes. They aim to reward outreach work carried out to inform, enthuse and engage the public. The competition is open to all researchers working in any sector of UK biosciences, from universities, institutes or industry. There are two categories of award:
Established researcher prize: £1500
Bioscience researchers who are beyond the first stages of their research career may apply. The Society is looking for researchers who communicate their own work well, and who represent their own field strongly in the science communication world. Please note: Professional science communicators, paid for science communication work beyond their role as a scientist, are not eligible to apply.
New Researcher Prize: £750
The New Researcher Award is open to bioscience researchers currently reading for a Masters/PhD or in the first year of a post-doctoral position.
Applications will open on 12th March 2018 and both awards can be found here: https://www.rsb.org.uk/get-involved/rsb-awards/outreach-awards
