Neurobiology - Grass Foundation Fellowship Program 2014

The Grass Foundation asks for applications for its Fellowship Program for the summer of 2014 at the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL). The deadline of submissions is December 5, 2013. With these Fellowships, The Grass Foundation wants to encourage independent research by investigators early in their careers and increases research opportunities for persons planning careers in neurobiological investigation. Supported approaches include neurophysiology, biophysics, integrative neurobiology, neuroethology, neuroanatomy, neuropharmacology, systems neuroscience, cellular and developmental neurobiology, and computational approaches to neural systems. The Foundation also has a longstanding interest in epilepsy-related research.

The duration of the program is 14 weeks, from 26 May to 30 August, 2014. Grass Fellowships provide research support including laboratory space, animals, equipment and supplies for one summer at the MBL. Additionally, the investigator and his or her family are provided housing, a daily meal allowance and round-trip travel to the MBL.
