US-EU Task Force on Biotechnology Research |
You must be nominated by a degree-granting institution, so you must apply through a university affiliated with your research institute. Also, if you receive an award, the university affiliated with the research institute must agree to administer the award. With the exception of National Institutes of Health, nominations will not be accepted from federal facilities or research institutes that are not affiliated with a degree-granting institution. Degree-granting institutions in the US and Canada may nominate up to two candidates. More info: http://www.bwfund.org STARS is prepared to offer twenty-seven grants totaling $1.3 million dollars to uniquely qualified research teams of scientists and humanities scholars on a highly competitive basis. Three levels of grants will sponsor research by interdisciplinary teams of scientists and humanities scholars on the ways science, in light of philosophical and religious reflection, points towards the nature, character, and meaning of ultimate reality. Twenty initial planning grants of $20,000 each will be awarded to the most promising research teams (a total of $400,000), followed by five major research grants of up to $100,000 (a total of $500,000) and two grant renewals of up to $200,000 (a total of $400,000).
