Travel grants
NUIA student travel grant
If your research relates to ageing, you could be eligible for a NUIA (Newcastle University Institute for Ageing) travel grant.
These grants are to help you travel to a conference or lab for ageing-related work.
You must be a registered PhD student, and be on the NUIA mailing list.
Most applicants for these grants are Faculty of Medical Sciences (FMS) researchers. But you don’t need to be in FMS to apply.
