SICB has instituted an annual Grants-in-Aid of Research program for graduate students
in degree programs who are active members of SICB.
Awards will be made to support scientific investigations in any of the areas of
integrative and comparative biology represented within SICB. Awards will be initially made
in amounts up to $1,000, all of which must be spent in direct support of the proposed
study.
Interested students can request application materials from the SICB Business Office by
sending the postcard enclosed with this newsletter. Closing date for receipt of
applications and supporting letters will be Dec. 1, 1997. Applicants will be notified of
the decisions within six weeks after the SICB Annual Meeting.
