Applications for the 2024 L’Oréal-UNESCO For Women in Science UK & Ireland Rising Talent Programme are now open until Wednesday, 25 October.
The awards have been designed to provide flexible and practical financial support to enable female scientists to further their research and careers. With the grant, winners may choose to spend their fellowship on buying scientific equipment, paying for childcare, travel costs or indeed whatever they need to continue their research. In addition to financial support, each year past and present fellows receive training and networking opportunities supported by L’Oréal.
They will be offering awards to promote, enhance and encourage the contribution of women pursuing their research careers in the UK or Ireland. They will be awarding five outstanding early-career women scientists a grant of £15,000 (equivalent € for candidates in Ireland) to support their research in the fields of Physical Sciences, Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science, Life Sciences and Sustainable Development.
