Jones-Fenleigh Fund bursaries for SVPCA attendance

About this program

The Palaeontological Association administers the Jones-Fenleigh Fund, offering bursaries to individuals with no other access to funding to enable attendance at the Symposium of Vertebrate Palaeontology and Comparative Anatomy (SVPCA). Bursaries may be used only for costs directly related to SVPCA attendance and cannot cover other purposes or optional extras such as field trips or conference dinners; the Fund is supported by donations, including proceeds from the SVPCA annual auction. Eligible applicants must demonstrate lack of access to conference funding; the Association’s Council acts as trustees and manages award decisions. Specific deadlines, award amounts, and application forms are referenced by the Fund but were not provided in the source—contact the Palaeontological Association or SVPCA for current application details.
