About

This scholarship provides £8,000/year towards the costs of a postgraduate student engaged in medical research. It is funded by a generous legacy from the estate of Laura Hester Edgeworth in memory of her son Jonathan. Preference will be given to students engaged in research related to passive immunotherapy, particularly in relation to HIV prevention and treatment.

The College will make every effort to partner with other funding bodies to increase the amount of the award, but this cannot be guaranteed.
