Biology Letters Early Career Researcher competition

Posted by felicity davie, on 18 February 2025

In 2022, Biology Letters launched the Early Career Researcher Competition to highlight the best research papers published in the journal by early career researchers (ECRs). We are delighted to announce that the 2025 competition is now open until Wednesday 30 April. The overall winner will receive £1000 and two runners-up will receive £500 each (or currency equivalent). We hope the prizes are particularly helpful for funding new research and/or attending conferences. Please see our terms and conditions before entering or contact the editorial office with your questions.

You don’t have to be an ECR to submit to the journal! Take a look at our Information for Authors page for more information on what we publish and how you can get involved.
