New! Research Chairs in Fundamental Science

The Faculty of Science is pleased to announce new Research Chairs in Fundamental Science.  Three chairs awards are available: one in the physical sciences, one in the life sciences and one in mathematical/computational sciences.  The purpose of the Chairs is to recognize and support researchers in the Faculty of Science that are conducting outstanding fundamental research in these areas.
Each Chair award will provide $20,000 of research funding per year for 3 years to support new and creative directions in fundamental research. The awards will be renewable for an additional 2 years contingent upon research progress and available funding. Chair recipients will also receive 3 credit hours of teaching relief per year.
Please see the attached PDF for more details.  The form is also posted to the FoS website at http://sci.umanitoba.ca/faculty-of-science-research-chairs-in-fundamental-science/
