Just a brief reminder that the deadline for the next round of research grants from the Scientific Instrument Society (SIS) is
The
SIS awards small grants, of up to £500 each, for research on the
history of scientific instruments. Applicants do not need to have any
institutional affiliation and applications that are for less than the
full amount are just as welcome - a properly costed proposal with a
clear relevance to the Society's interests in historic scientific
instruments, a realistic timetable and a tangible result are the most
important factors that the committee will be considering. Please note
that the grant awarded will be paid against actual expenditure and funds
cannot be paid in advance. The grant is intended to cover items such
as travel, accommodation (excluding meals) and photocopying costs.
Please note that we cannot fund conference travel.
