GBP 8,700.00 is available for award in 2023-24. 

This funding is available to students undertaking an MSc project in vector research. The project of successful applicants should focus on vector control specifically rather than on targeting other components of vector-borne disease control (e.g. chemotherapy, vaccines etc).

This funding is only available for the costs associated with a student’s MSc project, including travel or any activity associated with the project.

Students awarded this funding will be required to send a one-page report to the donor thanking them for their support, summarising how they have used the funds, and updating the donor on the MSc project.

Please note, this fund was previously known as Bayer Research and Travel Grant for Vector Control Research.
