Burroughs Wellcome Fund Accepting Applications for Collaborative Research Travel Grants
The Burroughs Wellcome Fund's Collaborative Research Travel Grants program provides up to $15,000 in support for Ph.D. candidates, postdoctoral fellows, and faculty researchers from degree-granting institutions in the U.S. or Canada to travel either domestically or internationally to a laboratory to acquire a new research technique, to facilitate a collaboration, or to attend a laboratory/lecture course.
Applicants must hold a Ph.D. or be studying for a Ph.D. in mathematics, physics, chemistry, computer science, statistics, or engineering and be interested in investigating research opportunities in the biological sciences. Biologists interested in working with physical scientists, mathematicians, engineers, chemists, statisticians, or computer scientists to incorporate their ideas and approaches to answering biological questions are also eligible to apply.
Applicants must be citizens or permanent residents of the U.S. or Canada at the time of application.
Grants cannot be used for travel to domestic or international meetings or to cover salary support. Awards will be made to North American degree-granting institutions on behalf of the named award recipients.
