Colleagues -
        
Are you seeking funding for students to undertake research with you next summer?

Proposals for internal funding to the Baker and Rose Hills foundations are now being accepted. These funding sources offer support of student research with HMC faculty advisors for summer 2010.

No Beckman Endowment funds are available for the upcoming funding period. Because of this, available funds are primarily for support of students. Even so, both Baker and Rose Hills offer modest faculty-discretionary funds of $1000 for equipment needs or other project support.

Details and instructions for submitting proposals are available at

http://www.cs.hmc.edu/~dodds/rcomm

The deadline for receipt of these proposals is Friday 15 Jan 2010. 

That site also links to proposal calls by
  - HMC's HHMI grant to support collaborations in computational biology
  - the Center for Environmental Studies, which supports student projects with HMC advisors

The Research Committee looks forward to receiving your proposals.


Best wishes!

Zach Dodds
