Systematics Association Linnean Society of London

The Councils of the Linnean Society and the Systematics Association jointly administer the SRF fund.

Applications of all nationalities are welcome, and need not be members of either the Systematics Association or the Linnean Society of London. Please note that only electronic applications made using the form below are acceptable.

Typical activities supported include contributions to fieldwork expenditure, the purchase of scientific equipment or expertise (e.g. buying time on analytical equipment), specimen preparation (including the cost of temporary technical assistance), and contributions to publication costs. Projects of a more general or educational nature will also be considered, provided that they include a strong systematics component. Typical activities not supported include attendance at scientific meetings and contribtuions to student maintenance or tuition fees. The fund does not provide payments for Bench Fees. Projects already substantially funded by other bodies may be disadvantaged.

Successful projects are selected by a panel of six systematists who represent a wide range of conceptual interests and taxonomic groups. The value of any single award will not exceed £1500.

Applications may be submitted after 1 October but must be received before the 30 January of the following year, to be eligible for funds approved in the following calendar year. Decisions will be posted March-April of the year subsequent to submission.

Please read the "Guidelines for applying for SRF funding" before completing the online application form below. Please note that only applications made using the form below are acceptable.
