FUNDING FOR PRAIRIE RESEARCH
offered by Prairie Biotic Research, Inc.


We Are      Prairie Biotic Research, Inc. is a Wisconsin nonprofit established
in 2000.  Our purpose is to foster biotic research in prairies.  One of the
ways we do this is through a Small Grants Program that funds grants up to
$1000 for the study of any grassland taxa in the USA.  We are especially eager
to support independent researchers (individuals lacking institutional
support), but anyone may apply.  From 2002 to 2004, we awarded 12 grants to
researchers in seven states to study insects, plants, mammals, reptiles and
spiders.  Half of these grants supported graduate student research.

In 2005, we expect to fund four grants of up to $1,000 each.  We also have
additional geographically restricted funds for research in southeastern
Wisconsin and for research in Iowa.

To Apply for a Grant      To apply for a grant, contact Michael Anderson at
Prairie Biotic Research, Inc., PO Box 5424, Madison, WI 53705, or
prairiebioticresearch@hotmail.com after October 15, 2004, for a Grant
Application Form.  Proposals must be received by January 15, 2005.

Grants Program.  You may also specify: a geographical region in which the
research is to be done; research in one of three taxa (plants, invertebrates
or vertebrates); graduate student research; or our endowment fund to support
