Funding for UK/EU PhD studentships: Alumni Research Impact studentships

Any PhD research funded through the Alumni scheme must fall within one of the following 'Research for Society' themes:
- Cancer 2015
- Carbon reduction
- Science and society
- Social cohesion
- Regenerative medicine
- World poverty
For full details of these themes, see: Alumni Research Impact
