- THE SOCIETY DOES NOT STATE A NATIONALITY OR RESIDENCE RULE on this page, so check your own case with the RES before you invest time: the only positive signal is that recent awards went to students working in Pakistan, Kenya, India, the United States and the United Kingdom, so the fund is plainly not confined to UK projects. RES Student Members only, undergraduate or postgraduate. The project must clearly relate to insect behaviour, physiology or another entomological discipline and must further at least one RES strategic priority. Applications should be submitted at least three months before the event or expedition. Results are notified within two months and are adjudicated by the RES Outreach Committee.
