Alert services allow you to register your research interests on-line and then, when grant opportunities in your area of interest become available, you will receive email notification. There are several alert services that we recommend. The investigator completes a profile of his or her research interests on the Web. The investigator profile information is matched against the SPIN database, a comprehensive database of over 10,000 funding opportunities issued by the federal government, corporate and other private sources, and international sponsors. Every day, matched programs are emailed automatically to the individual investigator with full details of the opportunity.
Detailed instructions are available on the website.
This is a monthly email and web-based newsletter put out by the Office of Research and Sponsored Programs at Rutgers University. When announcements in the selected areas are issued by NSF, the individual will receive a short email notification that contains the Web address of the full announcement. The Custom News Service creates a personal homepage for each user which resides on the NSF server. The personal homepage contains links to all the selected documents in the selected topical fields. The NSF funds research in a wide range of basic science, including the biological sciences.
