Career Awards available through Burroughs Wellcome Fund
Burroughs Wellcome Fund’s Career Awards at the Scientific Interface (CASI) foster the early career development of researchers who are transitioning from training environments in the physical, mathematical, computational sciences and/or engineering into postdoctoral work in the biological sciences, and who are dedicated to pursuing a career in academic research. Candidates must have completed at least 12 months but not more than 60 months of postdoctoral research by the date of the full invited application deadline. CASI grants provide $560,000 over five years to bridge advanced postdoctoral training and the first three years of faculty service. Proposals that include deep or machine learning applications of artificial intelligence are particularly encouraged. Letter of Intent (LOI) applications are due September 2. Reach out to Sue Reeves, Executive Director of Foundation Relations, if interested in applying.
