Research Grant

Society for Endocrinology

To support members’ research and audit activities in the area of pituitary or adrenal, supported by the Marjorie Robinson Fund

The Society offers small grants and grants-in-aid to support members with any aspect of research and audit costs (except salary and institutional overheads). A non-exclusive list of examples would include consumables, equipment, service provision, data analysis, facility access, seed funding for pilot studies, or to complete projects. These grants are particularly suitable for supporting unanticipated costs to complete the final stages of a PhD or Early Career Researcher (ECR) project or for enabling the collection of preliminary data to leverage funding from national funding bodies.

Pedagogical research in endocrinology is also allowed under the scope of the research grant section providing the research outcomes are clearly justified.

Support for visits to other institutions which are essential to the project will also be considered. For example, your project may require visits to labs and other institutions for research or clinical skills, to form collaborations or to learn techniques. In exceptional circumstances, the Society will consider funding for professional training courses where they are directly related to endocrinology. Applicants should not include requests for travel to present findings at meetings or otherwise disseminate the results of the study.

The Society also welcomes applications which assist members to re-establish their research after a career break or change of field.

We are only welcoming applications for funding research projects within the Pituitary and Adrenal fields, which will be funded by our Marjorie Robinson Fund.

Deadline

Deadline: Wednesday 6 May. There is only one call planned in 2026.

How to apply

Please view the guidance for applicants for further information, including indicative values for grants, and submit completed applications forms as Word documents to grants@endocrinology.org by the appropriate deadline.

All grants are highly competitive and so applicants are encouraged to read the guidance carefully in advance, to be specific and detailed when answering questions on the application form and to seek advice and feedback from colleagues before submitting the final application.

AI based application success predictor

Across the Society for Endocrinology’s grant and award programmes, strong applications share the following common success factors:

🧠 1. Clear Scientific Relevance to Endocrinology

Projects must address endocrine biology, hormone mechanisms, clinical endocrinology, or related physiological systems, and articulate how the work adds new knowledge or improves practice. A compelling connection to endocrine health or disease increases competitiveness. endocrinology.org

📊 2. Well-Defined Aims and Feasibility

Review panels assess whether aims are focused, realistic and achievable within the proposed timeline and budget. Clear outcomes, milestones and deliverables show feasibility. endocrinology.org

👩‍🔬 3. Appropriate Member Experience and Environment

Membership status matters, and reviewers consider the applicant’s track record, current role, institutional support (e.g., lab access, mentorship) and capacity to complete the proposed research. endocrinology.org

✈️ 4. Value and Impact (for Travel/Meeting Grants)

For travel and meeting support, success predictors include demonstrating how the activity enhances scientific knowledge, networking, skills acquisition or clinical practice, not just attendance logistics. endocrinology.org

📣 5. Clear Communication & Proposal Quality

Proposals that are well written, logically structured, and concise allow reviewers to assess merit efficiently. Ensure hypotheses, methods, impacts, and resource needs are clear. endocrinology.org

👥 6. Early Career Emphasis (Where Applicable)

Grants like Early Career Grants support emerging researchers (often postdocs or researchers within a few years of PhD completion) and are tailored to provide preliminary data or short-term salary support to boost competitiveness for larger awards later. endocrinology.org

🧪 7. Preliminary Data Where Appropriate

For project grants or research funding, preliminary results can bolster feasibility and scientific merit, though smaller grants also fund projects explicitly intended to generate such data. College of Medicine and Vet Medicine
