A workshop is scheduled Monday 8 August, 11:30 - 1:30 at the ESA's
annual meeting next week for NSF program officers (yours truly
included) to talk about funding opportunities for undergraduates,
grad students, postdocs, and senior PIs. There are many standard and
special funding opportunities that will be of interest to the
community of those seeking funding from NSF, and this will be a good
opportunity for you to learn about them.
Of special interest will be a presentation introduced by Dr. Bette
Loiselle, Division Director of the Division of Environmental Biology
(which funds Population and Community Ecology, Ecosytem Science,
LTER, LTREB, Evolutionary Processes, Systematics and Biodiversity
Science, etc.), about a change in the timing and process of
submission of grant proposals for standard programs. I encourage you
to come to learn about these changes. If you are planning to submit a
proposal to NSF in the future, you will need to hear this information.
If you are not able to attend, an announcement will be posted to
ECOLOG-L soon after the ESA meeting.
