This new resource will cover postdoctoral issues and solutions. It's not too soon to think about preparing applications for graduate fellowships, scholarships, and grants for the 2001-2002 academic year. The deadline for university financial awards is January 15, 2001.
Extramural support is also available from many non-university sources.
These sources of support have various deadlines. The UCD Women's Center for Health, in conjunction with the UCD School of Medicine, has established a research support program for studies in the area of women's health which can lead to larger research proposals for NIH or other funding agencies. These grants are intended for junior faculty, graduate students, medical students, fellows and residents at UC Davis. Graduate students who apply must have a mentor who will be actively involved and can demonstrate support through provision of additional funds, space or other resources. Such mentorship is also encouraged for junior faculty.
