  • Sigma Xi Grants and Aid of Research Awards

    Hi everyone, 
    Some of you might have noticed that Virginia Tech graduate student Sydney Hope was mentioned in the last American Scientist Magazine. She was a 2014 winner of a Grants in Aid of Research award for $700, and one of our $1000 Graduate Student winners in past years.  News archive-Sydney Hope

    My graduate student Matthew Kocher was just notified that he also won a Grants in Aid of Research Award ($500) for his work in Prader-Willi Syndrome.  That's 2 for Virginia Tech--please let us know if any of your other students might have won these. We'd like to make sure your students become members if they are not already.

    If your students (grad and undergrad) are interested in applying for the next round of grants, Applications will be due again March 15: Grants-in-aid more info

    Congrats to our VT winners!!!
