Cooper Endowment E4 Seed Grant
Seed Funding for Innovative Research in Earth, Environment, Ecosystems and Energy
The Wiess School of Natural Sciences invites graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and faculty with a primary appointment in the School of Natural Sciences to submit proposals for the Cooper E4 Seed Grant ($5,000 US) to support innovative research initiatives in the broad areas of earth, environment, ecosystems, energy, and related fields.
This funding opportunity is intended to support activities that can fill a need and seed future research efforts, such as by enabling the launch of a new project or collaboration, supporting travel for training or data collection, or providing foundational support for an emerging research area.
