Research Grants

The American Academy of Arts and Sciences is again offering grants‐in‐aid for research in any recognized scientific field. The usual range is between $500 and $1500 per grant. In general, applications from individual scientists rather than from institutions are favored and projects dealing with explorations of the frontiers of scientific knowledge, whether interdisciplinary or within a single discipline, are preferred. Support is not ordinarily given for work aimed primarily at fulfilling the requirements for an academic degree. Applications for the grants must be received before September 1 by the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Committee on Research Funds, 280 Newton Street, Brookline Station 46, Boston, Mass. That office will supply the necessary application forms on request.
