Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute (STRI)

Supplementary Research Award Program (SRA)

Web Site: http://www.si.edu/stri/

The Smithsonian Institution is the world's largest museum complex and

research organization composed of 19 museums, 9 research centers, and the

National Zoo. Opportunities are provided for over 900 interns yearly at

its museums, offices, and research facilities. The Smithsonian Tropical

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.

Program URL: http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2012/nsf12601/nsf12601.htm

SYNOPSIS: Through the SEES Fellows Program, NSF seeks to advance

science, engineering, and education to inform the societal actions

needed for environmental and economic sustainability and human

well-being while creating the necessary workforce to address these

challenges. The Program's emphasis is to facilitate investigations

that cross traditional disciplinary boundaries and address issues of

sustainability through a systems approach, building bridges between

academic inquiry, economic growth, and societal needs. The Fellow's

proposed investigation must be interdisciplinary and allow him/her to

obtain research experiences beyond his/her current core disciplinary

expertise. Fellows are required to develop a research partnership(s)

that will advance and broaden the impact/scope of the proposed

research, and present a plan for their own professional development in

the area of sustainability science and engineering. <S2S>
