Smithsonian Institution Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute (STRI) Supplementary Research Award Program (SRA)Web Site: http://www.si.edu/stri/The Smithsonian Institution is the world's largest museum complex and research organization composed of 19 museums, 9 research centers, and the National Zoo. Opportunities are provided for over 900 interns yearly at its museums, offices, and research facilities. The Smithsonian Tropical Research Institution (STRI) in Panama, is a bureau of the Smithsonian Institution based outside of the United States, is dedicated to understanding biological diversity. Although STRI is based in Panama, research is conducted throughout the tropics. The Supplementary Research Award Program is a mechanism to replace the practice of waiving or reducing STRI fees for visitors. The SRA program is to recognize that in some cases it is to STRI's benefit to have researchers using facilities even if they can not pay full fees. The program is to provide supplementary support only. It is not intended to be a fellowship program that would provide major support for a visitor's research at STRI.

WELCOMEWelcome to the NASA Langley Research Center home of the Langley Aerospace Research Student Scholars (LARSS) program. Located in Hampton Virginia and established in 1917, NASA Langley engineers and scientists continue their award-winning research and development efforts to pioneer the future of flight (including entry, descent, and landing) in all atmospheres; the characterization of all atmospheres; space exploration systems and technology; and structural materials concepts, analysis, and integration. LARSS is a year round (3 sessions) paid, research, internship program for undergraduate and graduate students − pursuing degrees in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).  It is also a highly competitive program.  We annually received about 1,000 applications from which 200 students are accepted.  LARSS is also a nationally ranked internship program.  In 2011 the staff of Vault−Career Intelligence reviewed over 800 national internships and named LARSS one of its top 10 best internship programs.  For 25 years, the LARSS program continues to help preserve U.S. leadership in engineering and science by providing exceptional students from across the United States the opportunity to work with Langley researchers on some of the nation’s most vexing and important challenges and problems. Please note the NASA LARSS application is not part of NASA SOLAR. Do not hesitate to contact me or the LARSS program administrator, Ms. Debbie Murray, if you have questions or need additional information.  I can be reached by telephone at 757.864.2491 and by email at [email protected]://www.nianet.org/LARSS-2012/index.aspxAPPLICATION DEADLINES:Spring 2013Deadline October 24, 2012Summer 2013Deadline February 1, 2013

The fel-lowships are tenable during Harvard's academic year beginning in September 2012. Fellowships are available for 10 months (September 2012-May 2013), 12 months (September 2012-August 2013), the fall 2012 semester or spring 2013 semester (mid-career fellows only), or for two academic years (post-doc-toral fellows only) (September 2012-August 2014). Each year, the Sustainability Science Program recruits approximately 15-20 fellows to work with one an-other and with Harvard faculty. Candidates who are offered a fellowship will be paired with a Harvard fac-ulty member who has related interests. Applicants may identify a potential faculty member(s) with whom they would like to do research in the on-line application, but applicants should not try to secure a commit-ment from a faculty member before applying. (Unfortunately many faculty are not able to talk with the very large number of candidates who express initial interest in the fellowship. After a fellowship is awarded, however, they will be available to discuss whether there is a match of research interests with particular applicants.) A list of Harvard faculty with interests related to sustainability science is provided on the web pages of the Sustainability Science Program Faculty Affiliates and the Center for the Environment. Any member of the teaching faculty from any discipline at Harvard can serve as a faculty sponsor, regardless of whether the faculty member has had a prior affiliation with the Sustainability Science Program.

Fleur L. Strand   Professional Opportunity Award Application Deadline: November 8, 2012Award: $1000 + advance EB meeting registration reimbursement The Fleur L. Strand Award was established to recognize the achievements of a young physiologist, (graduate student or postdoctoral), enabling the recipient to attend the APS annual meeting at the Experi-mental Biology meeting.  The Award is named in honor of Dr. Fleur L. Strand, Professor Emeritus, New York University.  Dr. Strand was the first to show that stress-evoked hormones, such as adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), could have a direct effect on peripheral systems, such as muscle, independent of the adrenal gland.  This effect was demonstrated in developing and regenerating neuromuscular systems.  It was previously be-lieved that ACTH could only act through the adrenal gland. The award is open to a physiologist working in any area of research.  To be considered for the award, the candidate must be the first author of an abstract submitted to the APS annual meeting and must be a member of APS at the time of application (either Student or Regular). To receive the award, recipients must attend EB, present a paper at the meeting, and attend the APS Business Meeting. The awardee re-ceives $1,000 and complimentary registration for the Experimental Biology meeting. The annual Fleur L. Strand Professional Opportunity Award will be granted to the top tum Suden appli-cant who presents a contributed paper at the meeting. Application deadline coincides with EB abstract deadline (Nov. 8, 2012).  Apply Now Questions about these awards? Contact: [email protected]
