Funding Opportunity for US Early Career Scientists Involved with or Interested in Antarctic Research

Call for Applications

The US Biological Adaptations to Environmental Change in Antarctica – An Advanced Training Program for Early Career Scientists has grants (<$5,000) available for research and travel to enhance participation in the US Antarctic Program. Funding is available to augment current research, or to offset costs to attend in person or remote meetings. Applicants can be already involved in Antarctic research or be interested in getting involved in the study of any aspect of Antarctic science (does not have to be biological). Applications are invited from (1) students currently enrolled in MS or PhD programs, (2) postdoctoral researchers, and (3) early-career faculty and research scientists. “Early career” is defined here as pre-PhD or within five years of earning a PhD. Applicants must be enrolled or employed at a US university or institution.

Review of applications will start December 15, 2021. Applications submitted after December 15 will be reviewed until all available funds are fully allocated.

This program is supported by US National Science Foundation Grant #1245752.
