The Anaphylaxis Campaign runs a small grants programme for research projects that are being conducted to help improve the lives of those affected by severe allergy.
The grant scheme (£5,000 per annum) is available to U.K. based students currently completing an MSc, MA or PhD or an early career researcher (up to three years from completion of a PhD).
The aim of the small grants programme will be to help students fund the expense of conducting research, by providing money towards the direct costs arising from the study. The grant could be used for expenses such as printing, postage, travel and consumables, which students might otherwise be unable to afford to pay for themselves.
Applicants will be asked to submit a proposal using the application form for consideration by the Chief Executive and members of the Board of Trustees of the Anaphylaxis Campaign.
Previous grants went to:
- £824 was awarded to a Prospective Study of Markers for Pollen Food Syndrome Among Children Attending Allergy Clinic in London to help fund information sheets & questionnaires for the childnre, parents/guardians and other materials for skin prick testing
- £2,200 was awarded to a study on elucidating the role of fungal protease allergen induced TSLP production in promoting allergy, anaphylaxis and airway wall remodelling
- £4,450 towards the cost of video production for a project surrounding the development of novel educational videos for parents of children with food allergies (milk, egg, nuts)
