Anderson
& Crum Field Bryology Research Award
The American Bryological and Lichenological Society (ABLS) is pleased to
announce this year’s program to support student field work associated with
bryological research. This award is made
possible by donations to the ABLS in honor of Lewis Anderson and Howard Crum,
both of whom were committed to field-based research on the biology of
bryophytes.
We anticipate 1 to 2 awards per year of up to $500 each in support of
fieldwork by bryology students. Funds
are intended primarily to support travel to field sites but requests to cover
other expenses critical to field work will be considered. Proposed fieldwork may
focus on any area of bryological research including systematics, evolution,
genetics, physiology, or ecology. Awards
are not provided for support of
travel to meetings, symposia, or to visit herbaria, museums, or other
institutions.
Proposals are due no later than 2 March (2015), and should be submitted by
e-mail to Dr. Joseph Rohrer (JROHRER uwec.edu )
Proposals
should include:
- A brief cover letter stating the request and title of the project
- A letter of support from the student’s graduate or undergraduate advisor
- A curriculum vita for the applicant
- A proposal, no more than one (2) single spaced pages (one inch margin, ≥ 11 point font), with the following information: (A) Project Description, (B) Budget Justification. The first page should provide the Project description and the second page the Budget Justification, including a statement about other funding sources for the project, and an explicit statement about additional support that would be necessary for completion of the study.
These four documents should be included in one compressed (“zipped”)
folder. Name the folder as follows: LastName_A&Caward_Year (for example, “Shaw_A&Caward_2014”)
Conditions
for eligibility:
- Applicant must be a member of the ABLS. In the case of undergraduates who are not members of the ABLS, their faculty advisor must be a member.
- Funds are to be used for expenses associated with fieldwork and cannot be used for laboratory expenses

Hola, me encuentro desarrollando una investigación sobre musgos en el estado de Oaxaca, estoy bastante interesado en esto. He tratado de buscar más información pero no encuentro algo conciso ¿Hay alguna otra página donde pueda encontrar mayor información? Saludos y gracias anticipadas.
