Description

 

The Elsevier Foundation is seeking new grant proposals for its New Scholars program, which provides funding for projects to help support women scholars during the early stages of their careers in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM).

The program is designed to actively address the attrition rate of talented women scientists caused by the difficulty of balancing a demanding academic career with family responsibilities.

Grants will range between $5,000 and $50,000 per year for up to three years.

Closing Date: September 1, 2011 - Proposals will be accepted online beginning July 1, 2011
