High-Risk Research in Biological Anthropology and Archaeology
U.S. National Science Foundation
Description
This grant offers small awards for anthropologists to explore the feasibility of high-risk research projects, often in distant or challenging locations. The goal is to help researchers assess the viability of their projects, which may be difficult to evaluate from afar and hard to fund due to their risky nature. The preliminary findings from these projects can support the development of more comprehensive research proposals. Researchers must consult with the NSF Program Director before apply…
Anthropological research may be conducted under unusual circumstances, often in distant locations. As a result the ability to conduct potentially important research may hinge on factors that are impossible to assess from a distance and some projects with potentially great payoffs may face diffic…
