Young researchers beyond the level of postdoc will be given priority; however, proposals from senior faculty or from small groups of faculty are welcome. Proposals will be judged on the basis of originality and should include research in more than one of the dimensions of biodiversity (taxonomy, functional ecology, genetics).
Successful proposals may be funded up to a level of $3000 per applicant. Any funding above that level would depend on the amount available to the IRCN-BC and would require additional justification from the applicant.
Applications are due on May 25, 2012 (late proposals will be considered if funds are still available).
Applicants must submit a proposal consisting of the following parts:
• Cover sheet with personal information (for the author of the proposal and all other partners involved in the project)
• Description of activities (5 pages maximum)
• Budget for expenses
