Hello, I am looking for funding for a PhD to search for anticancer compounds within sea slugs. My host university and advisor would be at the University of the Philippines, Diliman. I am a US citizen and will be done my Masters in marine biology sometime between the end of August and early October. Does anyone know of any grants or fellowships I could apply for this type of research other than the NIH graduate fellowship (F31)? My GRE scores have expired. I am looking for grants and fellowships that do not require the GRE. I do not qualify for the NSF Graduate Fellowship since I already will have a Masters degree. Any help and suggestions for funding opportunities would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
