The British Society for Immunology is proud to offer our Equality, Diversity & Inclusion activity grant scheme to help organisations and individuals fund activities and events that promote diversity and inclusion across the immunology community and the wider biomedical sciences.
These ambitious and inspiring activities aim to accelerate culture change and promote visibility with respect to equality, diversity and inclusion. Over the course of the grants, these activities will promote a more diverse, fair and inclusive immunology community.
