Specialised Foundation Programme (SFP) Bursary Allowance

The Isaac Schapera Research Trust was established following a bequest from Professor Isaac Schapera for the purpose of contributing towards the cost of research at any one or some of the University of London Medical Schools into problems relating to the causes and cures of diseases. 

The SFP bursary will provide £1,000 for each trainee to pay for conferences including travel, accommodation and subsistence and/or short courses.

As a SFP trainee, you are eligible for a £1,000 bursary during your FY2 and SFP academic placement.  This is for all expenses associated with your academic development (e.g. conferences, workshops and research visits including travel, registration and hotel costs).  This is not to cover laboratory costs or consumables.

Accessing your Bursary

This is a retrospective expense, so you will need to pay the costs first and then submit an expense claim.  You will need to complete a UCL expense claim form and send with your proof of payment/receipts to Tom Muzyka

For further details and to request a UCL expense claim form, please contact Tom Muzyka

Please refer to UCL Expense Claim Policy when you submit a bursary claim.
