Funding-L'Oreal USA for Women in Science Fellowship: Application
Opens November 28, 2016; February 3, 2017
The L’Oréal-UNESCO for Women in
Science program recognizes and rewards the contributions women make in STEM
fields and identifies exceptional women researchers committed to serving as
role models for younger generations. More than 2,250 women scientists in
over 110 countries have been recognized since the program began in 1998.
In the US, the L’Oréal USA for
Women In Science fellowship program awards five
post‐doctoral women scientists annually with grants of $60,000 each.
Applicants are selected from a variety of fields, including the life and
physical/material sciences, technology (including computer science),
engineering, and mathematics.
I invite you to collaborate with
us and spread the word to your community about this special fellowship program
for exceptional female post‐doctoral researchers who are also committed
to serving as role models for the next generation of girls in STEM.
Applications will open on
November 28, 2016 and are due by February 3, 2017.
