National
Science Foundation (NSF) Program Officers from the Division of Environmental
Biology and from related programs will discuss sources of funding for ecological
research, what NSF needs from the ecological community to secure these funds,
the core NSF ecology programs, and suggestions for writing successful research
proposals. Key aspects of the peer review process will also be discussed. More
importantly, Program Officers will provide honest answers to questions regarding
NSF funding for ecological research. Our goal is to provide insight into where
budgets for ecological research originate, what happens to these funds, and
suggestions for obtaining these funds.
