Gorilla for Language & Linguistics
Whether you're studying language learning, production, comprehension, multilinguilism, phonology, accents, or anything else language & linguistics, this is the grant for you!
Gorilla Experiment Builder is perfect for language research, giving you the tools to build lab-quality online experiments without the stress of coding. You can present text and images, play and record audio, and even gamify your research tasks with our Game Builder! Gorilla will collect data with validated reaction times for your whole experiment.
Take advantage of Gorilla's intuitive graphical interface to reach larger and more diverse samples, and run ambitious studies in hours, not months.

FAQ:
Do you have any tips for writing my application? We ran a webinar last year where our team, plus two previous grant winners, share what makes a great grant application. You can watch it here.
Can I apply more than once? Due to high levels of interest and in the interest of fairness, we're restricting applications to one per person.
Do you run other grants schemes? Yes! If you registered for this grant, we'll send you an email when our next grants scheme opens, or you can register for our main grants mailling list to keep up to date.
How will the winners be decided? Members of the Gorilla team will blind review and score each entry for Motivation, Feasibility of Methodology, and Research Impact.
When will I hear back? Applications close on Sunday March 30th. We'll email everyone who applies to let you know the result of your application by early May.
When will my one-year Gorilla subscription start if I win? You can expect your subscription to run from approximately May 2025 - May 2026, but we can delay your subscription start by a few months if needed.
What can I spend the cash prize on? The cash prize is a great opportunity to purchase more Gorilla tokens or participant credits to support your research. However, the only condition is that you use the money to support your research.
