RFP Call for Proposals - Sabbatical Scholars, Working Groups and Catalysis Meetings

[Chris Merkord]

Proposals for Sabbaticals, Working Groups and Catalysis Meetings are now being accepted at The National Evolutionary Synthesis Center (NESCent). We are looking to support innovative approaches to outstanding problems in evolutionary science. In particular, proposals that have a clear interdisciplinary focus, or involve evolutionary concepts in non-traditional disciplines, are strongly encouraged, as are proposals that demonstrate international participation and a mix of senior and emerging researchers, including graduate students. Proposals are accepted twice a year, with deadlines on July 10 and December 1. Proposals in any area of evolutionary science are welcome, but proposals in Evolution and the Social Sciences and K-12 Minority Education in Evolution are also being considered for the July 10 deadline (Proposals in one of these two areas must include “Targeted Initiative” in proposal title; see also http://www.nescent.o...tail.php?id=225 and https://www.nescent....tail.php?id=229). Proposals for Sabbaticals may be for up to a full year. We also accept proposals for short-term visits (2 weeks to 3 months; deadlines on January 1, April 1, July 1 and September 1).
