Highlands Biological Station (HBS) is now accepting applications for scholarships for research to be conducted at HBS during the summer 2014.
For nearly 50 years the Highlands Biological Foundation, Inc. has provided grants in support of scientific research, bringing graduate students and research scientists to Highlands from all over the country. Grant recipients are expected to spend time in residence at HBS, as both they and other researchers and students benefit from such interaction. Support may be awarded 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 grants-in-aid are provided research space without charge. Application cover sheets and text must be submitted before 5:00 p.m. EST on 1 March. Applicants are notified in early April, following final approval by the Board of Directors. Please see our website: http://highlandsbiological.org/grants-in-aid-of-research/ for information and an application. If you have any questions, please contact Karen Kandl at kka...@email.wcu.edu or 828-526-2602.
