Description
Minigrant Program
The Regents of the University of California and the Director of the Los Alamos National
Laboratory provide funds for collaborative research involving LANL and University principal investigators (PIs), i.e., in the form of a minigrant program.
- Graduate student and/or postdoc participation is an essential component of all approved minigrant projects.
- While many minigrants extend up to three years duration, IGPP issues minigrant awards on one-year basis with renewals decided as per scientific progress.
- In most cases, minigrants are dedicated to support salary and travel costs for the participating graduate student and/or postdoc, some equipment costs, and a minimal amount of support for the PIs.
- Successful proposals are required to include some form of matching support from their universities.
- Acceptable forms of matching support are the same as, but not restricted to, those accepted by the National Science Foundation or other Federal research funding agencies.
