Closure of the Ottewill International Travel Scholarship

The Ottewill International Travel Scholarship was set up in honour of Ron Ottewill by the UK Polymer Colloids Forum (UKPCF) to use up the residual reserves on its formal closure in 2016 with the funds continuing to be managed through Macro Group UK of which UKPCF had been a sub-group.  The Scholarship was designed to assist, each year, one outstanding UK-based graduate researcher, whose research related to polymer colloids, in presenting their work at an international conference outside the UK with a travel award of up to £1,000.  The award committee comprised Brian Vincent (University of Bristol), Peter Lovell (University of Manchester) and Craig Jones (Unilever).  The Scholarship is now closed, so the purpose of this note is to announce the closure and to highlight the researchers who have benefitted from being awarded Scholarships:

Their conference reports are available as PDFs using the links embedded in their names.  Note that the award committee made allowances in delaying use of the travel award to account for disruptions arising from COVID or ill health of a recipient.
