The Churchill Trust was established in 1965 to honour the memory of Sir Winston Churchill by awarding overseas research Fellowships known as 'Churchill Fellowships'. Churchill Fellowships are awarded in a huge variety of fields, if you browse through the list of fellows you will get an idea of how diverse the topics are!

The Churchill Fellowships allow you to design your own research project, travel the world and further your knowledge in your chosen field, before returning to make a real contribution to Australian society.
The Churchill Fellowship that I was awarded is sponsored by the Australian Biological Resources Study with the goal of undertaking overseas taxonomic research on Australian flora or fauna.  My fellowship focuses on cycads, and in particular I will be studying the Genomics and biodiversity of the endangered cycads of Australia and Asia.

    CHURCHILL-ABRS FELLOWSHIP

    In 2012, I was awarded a Churchill Fellowship sponsored  by the Australian Biological Resources Study. 
    This blog features postings about the many stops on my itinerary as I meet other scientists and visit botanic gardens in my goal to conserve Australia's endangered cycads.
