The British Mass Spectrometry Society (BMSS), in partnership with the Chromatographic Society (ChromSoc), are now accepting applications for their Summer Studentships scheme. The scheme funds summer research projects for students, providing them with opportunities to directly experience mass spectrometry and chromatography, going beyond what they will learn in lectures.

- Applicants can request up to £3,500 to cover costs for a 6-8 week student stipend and up to £300 research project consumables.
- Students will receive complimentary 5-Year BMSS or ChromSoc membership.*
- Complimentary registration for one BMSS Introduction to Mass Spectrometry Training Course and one BMSS or ChromSoc meeting is offered to each selected student.
- Travel assistance is offered to each selected student to facilitate their attendance at one BMSS Annual Meeting/Training Course or one ChromSoc scientific meeting.*
(*Funded by the relevant society)
