Eligibility for a BUPA Foundation specialist grant
Researchers and health professionals working for public or private organisations may apply for BUPA Foundation specialist grants for UK-based projects.
Study for higher/further degrees, medical electives, educational courses, seminars, conferences etc, although valuable activities, are not eligible for themed grants.
Unlike the medical research grants, the BUPA Foundation will consider specialist grant applications for the creation of research reviews in the field specified in the current year's theme.
New! Apply online from 16 May 2008
Applying for a specialist grant is easier than ever with the Bupa Foundation’s new online application system. Using the online application system you can submit a medical research grant proposal, register for online application and begin your submission.
You will be able to specify that you are applying for a ‘medical research’ grant during the submission process.
After each session you will be able to save your work for completion when convenient. Once submitted, the system will generate a PDF application document. We now only need one hard copy of this with original signatures before your grant can go forward to be considered at the next grants meeting. The signed copy is needed because it will form part of the research contract if you are awarded a grant.
Online application system
Please note:
specialist themes are advertised on the website and in the clinical press from October each year and close in mid February of the following year.
