International Society for Diatom Research, Young ISDR
Informational webinar on ISDR Grant Awards
Description: In 2023, the ISDR initiated a trial grant scheme for Early Career Researchers (ECR) who are members of our society, with £10,000 available for awards. The aim of program is to support ECRs by providing research funding to individuals and supporting scientific networks. ECRS are defined as 1) currently registered in a MSc or PhD programme, or 2) postgraduates within 8 years of the award of MSc or PhD or (extensions to this 8 year timeframe are permitted for periods of leave, including maternity, parental and sick leave). Two grant programs are open for submission until 1 October 2025 for the 1) Luc Ector grant and the 2) networking grant. The purpose of the sessions is to provide details of the grant program, allow previous awardees to share their experiences, and encourage ECRs to submit their research proposals.
Intended Audience: These interactive sessions will be directed toward graduate students and Early Career Researchers (within 8 years of graduate degree) and their advisors.
