support from other sources, even if it is for an unrelated purpose. Research grants normally range from $30,000 to $75,000 per year.<o:p></o:p></span></h2>

firmly established. Grants-in-Aid can also be made to senior scientists. All applications will be judged on the scientific merit and innovative aspects of the proposal, as well as on past performance and evidence of the applicant’s continued productivity.
Grants-in-Aid are awarded for a one-year period and do not exceed $30,000. <o:p>
