The Society’s principal aim is to support research and teaching in all aspects of reproductive biology.
To achieve this objective, the educational and career development activities of the SRF are overseen by the Education and Development Committee, which organises four main activities:

• Providing Travel Grants to support the attendance of SRF members at relevant scientific meetings and courses.
  
• Awarding Vacation Scholarships to enable undergraduate students to experience science first hand through short lab-based summer projects.
  
• Organising the SRF Undergraduate Essay Prize competition to engage students with contemporary topics in reproductive biology, and develop their skills as science communicators.
  
• Development of the SRF Website as an educational resource for members and the public.
