FUNDING-Whitehall
Foundation - Research Grants; April 15, 2018
Description
The
Whitehall Foundation assists scholarly research in the life sciences through
its research grants and grants-in-aid programs. It is the foundation's policy
to support dynamic areas of basic biological research that are not heavily
supported by federal agencies or other foundations with a specialized mission.
The foundation emphasizes the support of young scientists at the beginning of
their careers and productive senior scientists who wish to move into new fields
of interest.
1.
Research:
Research grants of up to $225,000 over three years will be awarded to
established scientists of all ages working at an accredited institution in the
United States. Grants will not be awarded to investigators who have already
received, or expect to receive, substantial support from other sources, even if
it is for an unrelated purpose.
2.
Grants-in-Aid:
One-year grants of up to $30,000 will be awarded to researchers at the
assistant-professor level who experience difficulty in competing for research
funds because they have not yet become firmly established. Grants-in-Aid can
also be made to senior scientists.
To
be eligible, applicants must hold the position of assistant professor or
higher, have Principal Investigator status, and be considered an "independent
investigator" with his/her own dedicated lab space or with lab space
independent of another investigator.
