Support may be requested for one to twelve weeks. Awards are based on the period of residence at HBS according to the following schedule: Graduate, $350/week; Postdoctoral, $450/week. Recipients of HBS Grants-in-Aid are provided bench space without charge. Applications (cover sheet & proposal) must be submitted as a single PDF document before 5:00 p.m. EST on 1 March 2016. Proposals are reviewed by the HBS Board of Scientific Advisors. Applicants are notified in early April, following final approval by the HBS Board of Directors.
