An adult entertainment site has announced a $25000 grant towards a human sexuality research project.

The Pornhub Grant for Sexual Wellness Research will support research work conducted by university students under its direction.

The idea is to improve the understanding of everything from the biological to the social components of sexual life.

With this grant, Pornhub hopes to help advance important work in the field, be it technological, medical, or sociologically rooted -- so long as its end goal is to bring new information into the world that can help people lead happier and healthier sex lives.

Applicants will be required to provide information about the project such as its objective and research method employed, as well as a description of the proposed study.

The last date to send in applications is May 1, 2018.
