Good Morning,
The Office of the Vice Provost for Research has launched the 2023 call for proposals for the William F. Milton Fund, which provides up to $50,000 in funding for junior faculty research projects. Please note that the deadline has moved up this cycle to February 15, 2023. More information on the opportunity can be found in the synopsis below:
William F. Milton Fund
Deadline: February 15, 2023
Award Amount: Up to $50,000 payable over one year
The William F. Milton Fund supports research projects in the fields of medicine, geography, history and science. The winning projects must either promote the physical and material welfare and prosperity of the human race, or investigate and determine the value and importance of any discovery or invention, or assist in the discovery and perfecting of any special means of alleviating or curing human disease. Funds awarded through the Milton Fund support research to explore new ideas, to act as the catalyst between ideas and more definitive directions, and to consider new methods of approaching global solutions. Applications are invited from individuals who hold a “junior faculty” appointment at a Harvard school, defined in FAS and SEAS as those with the title of Assistant or Associate Professor. Junior Fellows of the Harvard Society of Fellows may also apply, as may those in a post-doctoral position at Harvard with a formal accepted offer to join the Junior Faculty at one of Harvard’s schools. Those who have received Milton Fund grants within the previous five years (from 2018 onwards) are not eligible.
Potential applicants are encouraged to contact Liza Harsch at liza_harsch@harvard.edu with any questions or to determine whether a project is a good fit for the fund.
