What PER Seed Fund Awardees say about the scheme:

“This has enabled two researchers to gain skills and experience in public engagement with research”

“The PER seed fund allows the delivery of a range of projects in different areas with the potential for significant public impact, allowing the public to engage and benefit from the activities developed at the University of Oxford”.

“We found the procedure very straightforward and quick. It provided us with a great opportunity to evaluate and disseminate the results of our project. We thank you very much for this opportunity!”
