Question regarding funding opportunities for PhD students close to completing their thesis
I am an American PhD student at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. I am currently in my 4th year and have completed my field work component. I have more work that needs to be completed in the laboratory, and therefore will need another year to finish my degree (that is currently unfunded). Do you have any suggestions regarding places to seek funding for students that are close to completing their degrees? I ask because the funding would need to cover primarily living expenses (stipend) and potentially pay for help from a summer assistant in the lab. (It has been hard to find funding with these stipulations.) My research is on environmental gradients around small streams, and the influence they have on terrestrial invertebrate diversity and ecosystem functioning. I am in the Department of Forest and Conservation Sciences. If you have any suggestions or require further information to give advice, please feel free to contact me. Thank you, Tonya Ramey [email protected]
