dissertation fieldwork grants are awarded to aid doctoral or thesis research. the program contributes to the foundation's overall mission to support basic research in anthropology and to ensure that the discipline continues to be a source of vibrant and significant work that furthers our understanding of humanity's cultural and biological origins, development, and variation. the foundation supports research that demonstrates a clear link to anthropological theory and debates, and promises to make a solid contribution to advancing these ideas. there is no preference for any methodology, research location, or subfield. the foundation particularly welcomes proposals that employ a comparative perspective, can generate innovative approaches or ideas, and/or integrate two or more subfields.

the maximum amount of the dissertation fieldwork grant is us $20,000.  please note that the foundation has suspended the osmundsen initiative supplement  grants are non-renewable.

bwf's career awards at the scientific interface (casi) provide $500,000 over five years to bridge advanced postdoctoral training and the first three years of faculty service. these awards are open to u.s. and canadian citizens or permanent residents as well as to u.s. temporary residents.

details

these grants are intended to foster the early career development of researchers who have transitioned or are transitioning from undergraduate and/or graduate work in the physical/mathematical/computational sciences or engineering into postdoctoral work in the biological sciences, and who are dedicated to pursuing a career in academic research.

scientific advances such as genomics, quantitative structural biology, imaging techniques, and modeling of complex systems have created opportunities for exciting research careers at the interface between the physical/computational sciences and the biological sciences. tackling key problems in biology will require scientists trained in areas such as chemistry, physics, applied mathematics, computer science, and engineering.

do you have an innovative idea that has the potential for real-world impact at the intersection of technology and aging? age-well is launching a new funding program called the “sip accelerator” to support innovative post-discovery projects focused on the commercialization and/or knowledge mobilization of solutions (e.g. technologies, services or policies) aligned with age-well’s mission and vision.

the program provides:

• financial support;
• training opportunities; and
• strategic mentorship.

age-well is dedicated to the creation of technologies and services that benefit older adults and caregivers. our aim is to help older canadians maintain their independence, health and quality of life through technologies and services that increase their safety and security, support their independent living, and enhance their social participation.

award value and term:

up to $40,000 over 12 months.

the project grant program is expected to:

• support a diverse portfolio of health-related research and knowledge translation projects at any stage, from discovery to application, including commercialization;
• promote relevant collaborations across disciplines, professions, and sectors;
• contribute to the creation and use of health-related knowledge.

at google, we are committed to developing new technologies to help our users find and use information. while we do significant in-house research and engineering, we also maintain strong ties with academic institutions worldwide pursuing innovative research in core areas relevant to our products and services. as part of that vision, the google faculty research awards program aims to recognize and support world-class, permanent faculty pursuing cutting-edge research in areas of mutual interest.

our goal is to identify and strengthen long-term collaborative relationships with faculty working on problems that will impact how future generations use technology. google faculty research awards are structured as seed funding (up to $150,000 usd) to support one graduate student for one year and are awarded as an unrestricted gift. the award is highly competitive - only 15% of applicants receive funding - and each proposal goes through a rigorous google-wide review process.
