Discovery and Innovation Fund

Have a hand in potentially life changing inventions and discoveries. Private gifts help fund innovation, which can then attract grants. We are building an endowment that will help kick start ideas from researchers and teaching staff across all areas of science. Contact us to discuss pairing your interest to a research area.

Equity Future Fund

We believe that where you come from should not determine where you are going. We want to increase the number of bursaries for students from a range of disadvantaged backgrounds and nurture them through Science. Your help will enable students to push the boundaries and pursue their dreams.
