DISCOVER THE EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT GRANT

The purpose of this grant is to support educators and academics involved in education activities with their career progression. It enables them to demonstrate evidence of innovation in teaching and the ability to obtain external funding and training in educational and/or pedagogical research. This support is particularly crucial because initiatives backing research on effective teaching, especially at higher education levels, are currently underfunded. Consequently, the grant aims to improve the education of future experimental biologists through evidence-based learning.

Applications involving collaborations between at least two institutions will receive more favourable consideration. Such collaborations help ensure that educational initiatives and project outputs can be transferred to various educational contexts, thereby increasing their impact and potential for publication.
