Research Institution (STRI) in Panama, is a bureau of the Smithsonian
Institution based outside of the United States, is dedicated to
understanding biological diversity. Although STRI is based in Panama,
research is conducted throughout the tropics. The Supplementary Research
Award Program is a mechanism to replace the practice of waiving or
reducing STRI fees for visitors. The SRA program is to recognize that in
some cases it is to STRI's benefit to have researchers using facilities
even if they can not pay full fees. The program is to provide
supplementary support only. It is not intended to be a fellowship program
that would provide major support for a visitor's research at STRI.
Annually STRI will set aside funds to cover the program costs.

WELCOME
Welcome to the NASA Langley Research Center home of the Langley Aerospace Research Student
Scholars (LARSS) program.
Located in Hampton Virginia and established in 1917, NASA Langley engineers and scientists continue
their award-winning research and development efforts to pioneer the future of flight (including entry,
descent, and landing) in all atmospheres; the characterization of all atmospheres; space exploration
systems and technology; and structural materials concepts, analysis, and integration.
LARSS is a year round (3 sessions) paid, research, internship program for undergraduate and graduate
students − pursuing degrees in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). It is also a
highly competitive program. We annually received about 1,000 applications from which 200 students are
accepted. LARSS is also a nationally ranked internship program. In 2011 the staff of Vault−Career
Intelligence reviewed over 800 national internships and named LARSS one of its top 10 best internship
programs. For 25 years, the LARSS program continues to help preserve U.S. leadership in engineering
and science by providing exceptional students from across the United States the opportunity to work with
Langley researchers on some of the nation’s most vexing and important challenges and problems.
Please note the NASA LARSS application is not part of NASA SOLAR.
Do not hesitate to contact me or the LARSS program administrator, Ms. Debbie Murray, if you have
questions or need additional information. I can be reached by telephone at 757.864.2491 and by email at

Fleur L. Strand Professional Opportunity Award
Application Deadline: November 8, 2012
Award: $1000 + advance EB meeting registration reimbursement
The Fleur L. Strand Award was established to recognize the achievements of a young physiologist,
(graduate student or postdoctoral), enabling the recipient to attend the APS annual meeting at the
Experimental Biology meeting.
The Award is named in honor of Dr. Fleur L. Strand, Professor Emeritus, New York University. Dr.
Strand was the first to show that stress-evoked hormones, such as adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH),
could have a direct effect on peripheral systems, such as muscle, independent of the adrenal gland. This
effect was demonstrated in developing and regenerating neuromuscular systems. It was previously
believed that ACTH could only act through the adrenal gland.
The award is open to a physiologist working in any area of research. To be considered for the award,
the candidate must be the first author of an abstract submitted to the APS annual meeting and must be a
member of APS at the time of application (either Student or Regular). To receive the award, recipients
must attend EB, present a paper at the meeting, and attend the APS Business Meeting. The awardee
receives $1,000 and complimentary registration for the Experimental Biology meeting.
The annual Fleur L. Strand Professional Opportunity Award will be granted to the top tum Suden
applicant who presents a contributed paper at the meeting. Application deadline coincides with EB
abstract deadline (Nov. 8, 2012). Apply Now

Dear colleagues,
The European Research Networking Programme "Frontiers of Speciation
Research", supported by 18 National Funding Organizations in member
countries of the European Science Foundation, is inviting applications
for travel grants intended to foster collaborations between European
researchers working on topics related to the Programme.
Support is available for short visits (up to 2 weeks) and exchange
grants (up to 3 months), with preference given to junior researchers
at a graduate or postdoctoral level. Applicants will want to keep in
mind that, owing to the difference in costs, applications for short
visits are more likely to be successful than applications for exchange
grants.
Applications are reviewed quarterly after a submission deadline of
24:00 CET on 15 March, 15 June, 15 September, and 15 December. About
4-6 weeks after each deadline, the ESF will inform applicants about
the outcome of evaluations.
