PhD studentships
Designed to capture new and highly-qualified science graduates into a career of breast cancer research.
In addition to the scientific merit of the proposed research and its relevance to the aims of the charity, particular attention will be paid to the quality of the environment in which the award is to be held and the support provided by the supervisor and the host institution to help develop the student's career in research.
The application must be made by the potential supervisor, the charity will not accept applications from the potential students themselves.
Grant application procedure
PhD studentships are awarded in November each year*.
*You will note in the closing date for grant applications that the funding of PhD studentships takes place once a year in the November round. The funds that Breast Cancer Campaign will have to support this scheme will be separate from that the monies allocated to the project grant programme, therefore there will be equal funds for the project grant awards in both the May and November rounds.
