Antarctic Science Bursary - 31st March deadline

Dear all,


A reminder that the deadline for this year's Transantarctic
Association (TAA) small-grant round is 31st January.

The TAA is a charity which exists to promote, organise, encourage or
support scientific research or expeditions of discovery in the
Antarctic. Each year the association accepts applications for small
grants up to a normal maximum of £1,500 in support of field work or
travel to Antarctica, as well as equipment and other research
activities directly related to Antarctica. The total amount of money
available for distribution each year in any one year varies between £
10,000 and £15,000 depending on how well the charity's investment
portfolio has performed. Application must be received before the
annual deadline (31st January) and are considered by the relevant
advisory committees by the end of March.


Further information about eligibility and how to apply can be found at:

Many Thanks,

Dr James Smith, BAS

Grants Secretary
