LAB VISIT GRANTS
Foster collaboration and develop essential biochemistry techniques with our brand new Lab Visit Grants! Available to Postgraduate, Early Career, Full and Emeritus members, these grants support laboratory visits within the UK or overseas to undertake training, educate partners on new advances, or analyse results.
Offered as an expansion of our General Travel Grants scheme, funding of up to £2,000 is available to contribute towards travel, accommodation, and subsistence costs.
Please note that a successful Lab Visit Grant application would not affect your eligibility to apply for any other Biochemical Society grant, provided you do not exceed a maximum of £2,000 in total funding within a 3-year period.
Application deadlines
Applications are considered four times a year, the deadlines for which are:
- 2 March for visits after 1 April
- 1 June for visits after 1 July

- 2 November for visits after 1 December
Please note the outcome of applications will be sent to applicants three to four weeks after the application deadline of the round that has been applied to.
Key grant details
To be eligible to apply:
- Applicants must be an Postgraduate, Early Career, Full or Emeritus Member of the Biochemical Society.
- Applicants need to have been a member for at least the 12 months immediately prior to the deadline on the closing date of the round applied to. Members that have joined as multiyear members are eligible to apply for a Lab Visit Grant after six months of membership has elapsed. If you are not a member, join today.

- Applicants must not exceed a maximum of £2,000 in funding in a 2-year period across the Biochemical Society grants portfolio.
