in the United Kingdom and elsewhere. In May, more than 300 postgraduate researchers in London signed a letter asking for increased support from the Medical Research Council , one of nine funding councils under the UKRI umbrella. “A lot of students across the UK are quite concerned,” says Emma Francis, a second-year PhD student in psychiatry at University College London , who co-wrote the May letter. “Many are in a dire situation right now.

Franklin and Francis reached out to the UCL administration before contacting the MRC. The university “was very supportive of us and behind us every step of the way”, Franklin says.The financial situation is especially bleak for students living and working in London, she adds.
