Frequently asked questions
Who are science pitch calls for?+
Freelance science journalists and writers — outlets commissioning explainers, reported features, and essays on science, health, climate, and technology. Scientists who write are explicitly welcome at many of them; a sharp pitch matters more than a journalism degree.
Are there opportunities here for researchers, not just writers?+
Yes — research grants, science communication fellowships, and health-related funding programs appear alongside the pitch calls. Clinical and health-care programs are included under science.
Where do these opportunity listings come from?+
Opportunities are aggregated daily from publishers' and organizations' own submission pages and portals, plus curated editorial sources. Every listing is checked for real pay or a real award — explicitly unpaid calls are filtered out, and contests whose entry fee outweighs any stated prize are rejected automatically.
Why is the organization name hidden on some listings?+
Browsing titles, deadlines, award amounts, and entry fees is free. The hosting organization and direct submission link are unlocked with a paid CozyJobs membership — that curation is what the subscription funds. Plans start at $25/month; see cozyjobs.com/pricing.
How often are these pages updated?+
Continuously. New opportunities are ingested throughout the day, deadlines are monitored, and listings are removed automatically when their submission window closes.
